Let the angle be Θ (theta)
Let the mass of the crate be m.
a) When the crate just begins to slip. At that moment the net force will be equal to zero and the static friction will be at the maximum vale.
Normal force (N) = mg CosΘ
μ (coefficient of static friction) = 0.29
Static friction = μN = μmg CosΘ
Now, along the ramp, the equation of net force will be:
mg SinΘ - μmg CosΘ = 0
mg SinΘ = μmg CosΘ
tan Θ = μ
tan Θ = 0.29
Θ = 16.17°
b) Let the acceleration be a.
Coefficient of kinetic friction = μ = 0.26
Now, the equation of net force will be:
mg sinΘ - μ mg CosΘ = ma
a = g SinΘ - μg CosΘ
Plugging the values
a = 9.8 × 0.278 - 0.26 × 9.8 × 0.96
a = 2.7244 - 2.44608
a = 0.278 m/s^2
Hence, the acceleration is 0.278 m/s^2

Answer:
d=360 miles
Donna lives 360 miles from the mountains.
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
We apply the formula to calculate uniform moving distance[
d=v*t Formula (1)
d: distance in miles
t: time in hours
v: speed in miles/hour
Development of problem
The distance Donna traveled to the mountains is equal to the distance back home, equal to d,then,we pose the kinematic equations for d, applying formula 1:
travel data to the mountains: t₁= 8 hours , v=v₁
d= v₁*t₁=8*v₁ Equation (1)
data back home : t₂=4hours , v=v₂=v₁+45
d=v₂*t₂=(v₁+45)*4=4v₁+180 Equation (2)
Equation (1)=Equation (2)
8*v₁=4v₁+180
8*v₁-4v₁=180
4v₁=180
v₁=180÷4=45 miles/hour
we replace v₁=45 miles/hour in equation (1)
d=8hour*45miles/hour
d=360 miles
