Question: A 1 5 - k g crate slides down a 2 . 2 m long ramp at a 2 5 angle to the horizontal floor.

A 15-kg crate slides down a 2.2m long ramp at a 25 angle to the horizontal floor. Assume the coefficient
of friction is 0.35.
A) Determine the magnitude of the forces due to friction?
B) Determine the magnitude of the x-component of the weight force?
C) determine the work done by friction?
D) determine the work done by gravity?
E) Assuming the crate started from rest, use the work-energy theorem to find the speed of the crate after traveliing the 2.2 m?
