The coefficient of static friction between the basket and the slope is 0.45 and the basket is on the point of slipping down the slope. Model the basket of flowers as a particle and the grassy slope as a plane. Take the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity, g, to be 9.8 m s−2 . State the forces that act on the basket. Draw a force diagram showing them, defining the symbols that you use to represent the forces and marking the sizes of the angles to show the directions of the forces.
