Question
# Problem

A winch, located at \( M \), pulls a box up an incline with a cable. The distance from the box to the winch is \( s \). Suppose that, starting from rest, the box travels the full distance \( s \) and the tension in the cable is a constant value \( T \). Assume the box has mass \( m \) and a sliding coefficient of friction of \( \mu_k \). What is the speed of the box, \( v_M \), when it reaches the winch at point \( M \)? Assume the values \( g = 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2 \), \( T = 300 \, \text{N} \), \( \mu_k = 0.3 \), \( m = 20 \, \text{kg} \), \( \theta = 30^\circ \), and \( s = 10 \, \text{m} \).

## Diagram Explanation

The diagram shows an inclined plane with an angle \( \theta \) to the horizontal. A box of mass \( m \) is on the incline, and a cable runs from the box over a pulley at point \( B \) to a winch located at point \( M \). The incline is marked with the distance \( s \) from the box to the winch. The gravitational force \( g \) acts vertically downward, while kinetic friction acts along the plane with a coefficient \( \mu_k \).
