This is mainly stumping me because of the absence of any force or mass.
A crate is sliding down a ramp that is inclined at an angle of 33.6° above the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp surface is 0.485. Find the acceleration of the moving crate.
[tex]\mu[/tex][tex]_{k}[/tex]= .425
[tex]\theta[/tex] = 33.6
g = 9.8m/s[tex]^{2}[/tex]
Well, F[tex]_{net}[/tex]x = ma , but there is no mass... I don't know where to go from here.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
