Mechanics:Maximum stretch in spring holding block on incline
Not what you're looking for?
A 2.0 kg box rests on a plank that is inclined at an angle of 65° above the horizontal. The upper end of the box is attached to a spring with a force constant of 16 N/m, as shown in Figure 6-38. If the coefficient of static friction between the box and the plank is 0.28, what is the maximum amount the spring can be stretched and the box remain at rest?
