PROBLEM 15O3: A 300-lb pushes a 200-lb block up an PROBLEM 1504: A horizontal force of 300lb pushes a 200-
incline whose coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.10. If the block is lb block up an incline whose slope is 3 vertical to 4 horizontal. If

from rest? If the 50-lb force is then removed, how much longer
will the block continue to move? Given: Req’d:
𝘍=300lb; 𝘞=200lb 𝘵=time
Given: Req’d: 3

𝑓𝑡
𝜇=0.1; 𝘝= 48.3𝑠𝑒𝑐 𝘝1 =10𝑠𝑒𝑐; 𝘝1 = 50 𝑠𝑒𝑐

Solution: Solution:

𝛴𝘍𝘹 =0
[50-300(0.1)]𝘵 = 300⁄32.2 (48.3) [300-120-160(0.2)]𝘵 = 200⁄32.2 (50 − 10)
𝘵 = 22.5 sec. 148𝘵 = 248.45
𝘵 = 1.68 sec.
300(0.1) = 300⁄32.2 (48.3)
𝘵 = 15 sec.
