A block of given mass is sliding down the plane with a given acceration. Find the normal reaction force, the parallel force and the missing value of a and mu.

A block lies on rough horizontal ground. The coefficient of friction is given and students find the maximum value of friction $F_{\text{MAX}} = \mu R$. This is then used to determine the magnitude of force that must be exceeded to achieve movement when the force is applied horizontally and at two different angles to the horizontal.

Finding the acceleration of a particle on an inclined plane which is at an angle to the horizontal. Smooth then with value for coefficient of friction.

A particle is projected up a rough plane at a given speed. Given the angle of the slope and the coefficient friction, find the distance the particle travels before it comes to instantaneous rest.
