The 3.42 kg physics book shown is connected by a string to a 518.0 g coffee cup. The book is given a push up the slope and released with a speed of 2.73 m/s. The coefficients of friction are μs = 0.490 and μk = 0.185. What is the acceleration of the book if the slope is inclined at 27.4°?

Answer 1

In which direction is the 2.73m/s velocity? Where is the coffee cup?

Answer 2

5m/s^2
