A 60 kg crate is dragged across a floor by pulling on a rope attached to the crate and inclined 12° above the horizontal. (a) If the coefficient of static friction is 0.46, what minimum force magnitude is required from the rope to start the crate moving? (b) If Hk = 0.30, what is the magnitude of the initial acceleration (m/s^2) of the crate? (a) Number i Units (b) Number i Units
