    Thermal Energy created by block sliding down ramp

    [b]1. A 1300 N crate slides 15 m down a ramp that makes an angle of 40 degrees with the horizontal. [b]2. F therm = Fk\DeltaX [b]3. I understand how to solve this with the coefficient of friction given, but how can I without the problem stating \mu?
