A student of mass 57.4 kg, starting at rest, slides down a slide 17.2 m long, tilted at an angle of 26.1° with respect to the horizontal.

This force can either push the block upward at a constant velocity or allow it to slide downward at a constant velocity. The magnitude of the force is different in the two cases, while the directional angle θ is the same. Kinetic friction exists between the block and the wall, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.320. The weight of the block is 50.0 N, and the directional angle for the force F→ is θ = 49.0°. Determine the magnitude of F→ when the block slides (a) up the wall and (b) down the wall.
A 3.230 kg block of wood rests on a steel desk. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the desk is ?s=0.555 and the coefficient of kinetic friction is ?k=0.205.

A block is placed on the midpoint of a ramp that is inclined at an angle of 39.8º from the horizontal, at which point the block immediately starts to slide down the ramp due to the fact that the static friction limit for this particular case is insufficient to hold the block in place. If the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the ramp is 0.277 , what is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block as it slides down the ramp.
A block of mass 20kg is pushed against a vertical wall by force P. The coefficient of friction between the surface and the block is 0.2. If theta = 30 degrees, what is the minimum magnitude of P to hold the block still?I understand that in order for the block to sit motionless, the net forces acting on the block must be zero. I set my equation to be Net Force = 0 = Psin(theta) + Force Friction - Force Gravity.Which I rearranged as P = (Force Gravity - Force Friction)/sin(theta) or P = (mg-μ(mg))/sin(theta)Doing this gives me a value of 313.6N rather than 202.9N which I should be getting. What am I doing wrong?
