They are equal to the total downward (negative) force of Fx? So we got something moving that is being deccelerated by two forces and we need to work out the distance it will travel, so we need to calculate the decceleration first as I understand it but I'm at a total loss here as to "how to...

I have already done that. I am focusing on part a.) of the question right now. so There are 2 forces slowing the object down, the weight (gravity) and the friction. But I don't understand how to use these equations. Could you perhaps give me an example, or help me a bit more? Thanks!

Homework Statement A block is projected up a 30° slope at 4m/s. When it is moving the coefficient of friction is 0.3. When the block is stationary the maximum coefficient of friction is 0.5. a. Calculate how far up the block will go. b. Show that the block will not remain there. c. Calculate...
