2. A block of mass 10kg rests on a 35° inclined plane with the horizontal. A string is used to keep the block in equilibrium. The string makes an angle of 25° with the inclined plane. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is 0.3. a) Find the magnitude of the tension in the string. b) Find the magnitude of the force of friction acting on the block.
