Newton's Laws of Motion · Friction
A block takes time to slide down a plane inclined at to the horizontal. If the surface is made smooth (frictionless), the block takes time to slide down the plane. The coefficient of friction between the block and the inclined plane is . The value of is .
We corrected a printing error in the original paper
Source printed “the block takes times ”; “coeffcient”.
