Problem 4.29

4.29.

We know that the acceleration of the block due to the force of gravity is given by

tex2html_wrap_inline409

So, first let's find the time that it takes to get to the top. We know that tex2html_wrap_inline411 , so we find

tex2html_wrap_inline413

tex2html_wrap_inline415

tex2html_wrap_inline417

So, the block will travel 3.72 m up the incline before coming to rest.
