Show that the acceleration of any object down an incline where friction behaves simply (that is, where fk=kN ) is a=g(sinkcos). Note that the acceleration is independent of mass and reduces to the expression found in the previous problem when friction becomes negligibly small (k=0).

A 16-year-old employee working for Southern Virginia College's (SVC) bookstore during the summer months is helping prepare for Fall salesIt's a good way to make extra money, and the teen is saving for a car. Books from one supplier are shipped to the SVC bookstore in large crates equipped with rope handles on all sides. On one occasion, the teen momentarily pulled with a force of 669 N at an angle of 35.3above the horizontal to accelerate a 124-kg crate of books. The coefficient of friction between the crates and the vinyl floor is 0.588. Determine the acceleration experienced by the crate in m / (s ^ 2) Use the approximation g = 10; m / (s ^ 2)
