A ramp with a height of 10.0 m has an inclination angle of 30 degrees. A 12.0 kg block is sitting on top of the ramp initially at rest. Assuming the ramp's surface is frictionless, calculate the block's acceleration amd velocity when it reaches the base of the ramp. How much force did the block experience down the ramp and what must the coefficient of static friction be in order for the block to not move?

So the given acceleration is a negative value, it means its direction is going up the slope, slowing down as it moving downward). So The coefficient of friction between the sled and the snow is 0.100. How many Joules of work is done by the tension in the rope as the sled moves 9.1 m along the hill? Use g= 10 m/s2. Your answer for this problem maybe some large number. Just put in the raw number as your answer. For example, 34567.11.
