A 10kg block is pushed up a 35° incline. A friction force of 110N exists between the block and the incline. What minimum force F would be necessary to move the block up the incline... A 10kg block is pushed up a 35° incline. A friction force of 110N exists between the block and the incline. What minimum force F would be necessary to move the block up the incline at a constant speed? Take g = 10m/s².
Understand the Problem
The question describes a block being pushed up an inclined plane at a constant speed. We need to determine the minimum force required to achieve this, considering gravity and friction. This involves resolving the gravitational force into components parallel and perpendicular to the incline, and then summing the forces to find the applied force needed to overcome both friction and the component of gravity acting along the incline.
