Sorry, what I meant by the x acceleration being the same was that I meant it would be the same as I have already calculated to be -10.935. The two forces acting parallel to the direction are the gravitational force of 9.81*5.6*Tan(30) and the Frictional force. I think.

Thank you for your prompt response. I'm am having a hard time understanding your help. I should set the direction of the incline to the x-axis. So wouldn't that make the \sum F_y=ma_Y equal to zero? Then the \sum F_x=ma_X would be the same because my acceleration is th same? I don't...

I am struggling a little bit on this problem. Any help is appreciated. Homework Statement A 5.60 kg block is set into motion up an inclined plane with an initial speed of v0 = 8.10 m/s. The block comes to rest after traveling 3.00 m along the plane, which is inclined at an angle of 30.0° to...
