A 25kg box rests without sliding on a loading ramp at an angle of 30 degrees. What is the coefficient of friction between the box and the ramp? I know the answer is .58 but I'm not sure how to do this.

OpenStudy (mathmate):

If the box is at the point of slipping, then the coefficient of friction is equal to tangen(theta)=tan(30)=0.577. However, the coefficient of friction can be > 0.577 if we only know that the box does NOT slip. In other words, the MIN coef. of friction is 0.577.
