Newton's Law and Friction (Ramp problem)
Well the problem indicated that the force pushing the block up the ramp had an angle of 13 degrees. So denoting that phi, I used Fsin(phi) and Fcos(phi) respectively. My answer in the end was about 54.85 N. Which was incorrect. No idea what I am doing wrong.- Mad Season

Limit/Direct Comparison for Series Question
I just did the integral test for this series, and it diverges. So basically, I can uses the limit comparison test with the bn: \frac{7}{6n ln(n)} So ultimately, the series diverges then. Right?- Mad Season
