Crate Down Ramp#

A \({{params.m}} \ \rm{kg}\) crate is sliding down a \({{params.theta}}^{\circ}\) slope. A man attempts to stop it by pulling uphill on a rope parallel to the slope. A man pulling a crate up a slope using a rope.

Part 1#

If the coefficient of kinetic friction is \({{params.nu}}\) and the tension of the rope is \({{params.T}} \ \rm{N}\), what is the acceleration of the block? Enter a negative number if the crate accelerates downwards.
