friction on the ramp=mg*mu*cosTheta
downward force due to weight=mg sinTheta
Net force=mass*acceleration
Tension-friction-gravityforcedown=ma
solve for tension
check my thinking.
A 208-kg log is pulled up a ramp by means of a rope that is parallel to the surface of the ramp. The ramp is inclined at 34.0° with respect to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the log and the ramp is 0.830, and the log has an acceleration of 0.800 m/s2. Find the tension in the rope
