Answer:
μs = 0.75
μk = 0.58
Explanation:
From a force diagram:
(1)
(2)
When it starts slipping, friction force is the maximum and acceleration is 0. Replacing these conditions on (1):
Solving for μs:
μs = tan 36.7° = 0.75
When it moves at constant speed, friction force is kinetic friction and acceleration is 0. With these conditions the coefficient is:
μk = tan 30.1° = 0.58
