The conveyor belt shown below is inclined at an angle of 25 degrees. A 3kg package B is placed on the conveyor belt at the position shown with an initial velocity of 0 m/s with respect to the ground. The belt is moving quite fast, and as one could imagine the package is initially slipping, but it's accelerating at a rate of 3.05 m/s^2 until it catches up to the velocity of the belt. If this is the case, find the coefficient of friction between the belt and the package.

Question
The conveyor belt shown below is inclined at an angle of 25 degrees. A 3kg package B is placed on the conveyor belt at the position shown with an initial velocity of 0 m/s with respect to the ground. The belt is moving quite fast, and as one could imagine the package is initially slipping, but it's accelerating at a rate of 3.05 m/s^2 until it catches up to the velocity of the belt. If this is the case, find the coefficient of friction between the belt and the package.
