Recap - Ramp Challenge

Part of the Mechanics section of Coddy's Physics journey. Lesson 25 of 97.

Challenge

Movers push a $20\ \mathrm{kg}$ crate up a $30^\circ$ ramp with a force $F$ parallel to the slope. The crate slides up the ramp and speeds up at $0.5\ \mathrm{m/s^2}$ , and the kinetic friction coefficient is $\mu = 0.25$ . Find their push $F$ .

Try it yourself
