Answer:

0.7

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is expressed as;

η = F/R

F is the frictional force

R is the normal reaction

since F = mgsinθ (Force acting parallel to the ramp)

R = mgcosθ

Substitute into the formula

η = mgsinθ/mgcosθ

η = sinθ/cosθ

η = tanθ

Given

θ = 35°

η = tan35°

η = 0.7

Hence the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and the ramp is 0.7
