Homework Statement
A block accelerates at 3.7 m/s^2 down a plane at an angle of 26 degrees. Find the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the inclined plane. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s^2.*

F[tex]_{}k[/tex] = [tex]\mu[/tex][tex]_{}k[/tex] * F[tex]_{}n[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
I've drawn the free body diagram and I am currently stuck. The problem doesn't give any values for any of the forces and I'm not sure how to calculate ANY of the forces with just acceleration and an angle.
*This is the complete problem, but on my worksheet it comes with an image diagram.
