Problem

A 4.0 kg4.0\,\text{kg} block is released from rest on a 30∘30^{\circ} rough incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface is 0.200.20. Take g=9.8 m/s2g=9.8\,\text{m/s}^2. What is the magnitude of the block’s acceleration down the slope? (a) 4.9 m/s24.9\,\text{m/s}^2 (b) 3.9 m/s23.9\,\text{m/s}^2 (c) 3.2 m/s23.2\,\text{m/s}^2 (d) 2.9 m/s22.9\,\text{m/s}^2
