A flatbed truck is carrying a crate up a hill of angle of inclination μs = 10.0°, as the figure illustrates. The coefficient of static friction between the truck bed and the crate is μs = 0.350. Find the maximum acceleration that the truck can attain before the crate begins to slip backward relative to the truck.

There are 3 Steps involved in it
The crate will not slip as long as it has the same acceleration as the truck Therefore a net force must act on the crate to accelerate it and the stat... View full answer
