Expert Solution
Step 1

Given data

The mass of the box is M

The angle of inclination is θ

The coefficient of kinetic friction is μk

The coefficient of static friction is μs

 

The free-body diagram of the configuration is shown below:

Physics homework question answer, step 1, image 1

The expression for the normal reaction force is given as:

FN=Mgcosθ

The expression for the  force in the inclined position is given as:

Ff=Mgsinθ

The friction force is given as:

Ff=μkFNμkFN=Mgsinθ

Thus, the friction force is shown above.
