A mass m = 15 kg is pulled along a horizontal floor with NO friction for a distance d =7.1 m. Then the mass is pulled up an incline that makes an angle θ = 30° with the horizontal and has a coefficient of kinetic friction μk = 0.38. The entire time the massless rope used to pull the block is pulled parallel to the incline at an angle of θ = 30° (thus on the incline it is parallel...
