Hi !

Can anyone help me ?

Problem :
************************************************************************
1- A coffee cup on the dashboard of a car slides forward on the dash when the driver decelerates from 40 km/h to rest in 3.5 s or less, but not if he decelerates in a longer time. What is the coefficient of static friction between the cup and the dash ?
**********************************************************************
2- An 18-kg box is released on a 37*(grade) incline and accelerates down the incline at 0.270 m/s(square). Find the friction force impeding its motion. How large is the coefficient of friction
**********************************************************************

Thanks !
