A block of mass M resting on a 21.5° slope is shown. The block has coefficients of friction μs=0.605 and μk=0.344 with the surface. It is connected via a massless string over a massless, frictionless pulley to a hanging block of mass 2.57 kg. What is the minimum mass M1 that will stick and not slip?
