Weight=mg=49*9.8N Acting along just downward

OpenStudy (shamim):

Component of weight along inclined surface is= 49*9.8*sin34

OpenStudy (shamim):

Component of weight perpendicular to the inclined plane is=49*9.8*cos34

OpenStudy (shamim):

Static frictional force=coefficient of static friction*R=0.73*49*9.8*cos34=?
