An 8 kg block is shot up an incline of 300with an initial speed of 3.6 m/s. How far up the incline will the block travel if the coefficient of friction between it and the incline is 0.22? Hint: Express the height above the ground that the block is above the incline in terms of the distance up the incline (hypotenuse).
