Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. Value Units Submit My Answers Give Up

Explanation / Answer

F min = coeffcicient of static friction* R = 0.7 * 61*9.8 =418.46 N

after sliding

frictional force f= 0.5 * 61 *9.8=298.9 N

acceleration = 418.46 - 298.9 / 61 =1.96m/s^2
