Problem
A solid cylindrical wheel of radius R rolls without slipping up a rough incline. At the instant shown the wheel is still moving up the slope but slowing down. Indicate the direction (up the slope or down the slope) of the friction force exerted by the incline on the wheel and state whether the friction is static or kinetic. Provide a brief justification.
