A 20 N block is placed on an inclined plane and connected to a 10 N hanging block by a cord that passes over a frictionless pulley. The coefficient of kinetic friction between block and plane is 1/3. Find one value of angle so that the hanging block will move downward at constant velocity once set in motion.
