Question 66

A block, of weight 10 N, is at rest on a rough plane inclined at an angle of θ \theta\,θ to the horizontal. The coefficient of friction between the block and the floor is 0.488. The block is on the point of sliding down the plane.

A rectangular block rests on a rough plane inclined at an angle θ to a short horizontal reference line.

Find the value of θ\thetaθ.
