The local Amazon warehouse is looking to increase package delivering efficiency. They are testing a new conveyor belt system. Boxes are transported from one end of the factory to the other on this conveyor belt, with a velocity of vo. They eventually reach the end of the conveyor, where they slide onto a fixed incline section with µk = 0.40. The start of the inclined section is Point A, and the end is Point B. Determine: a) The velocity of the conveyor belt if the boxes leave the incline with a velocity of 8 [ft/s]
