The question was just what "in terms of" meant as I originally thought it strictly meant you had to use all the variables listed. Thank you guys for sorting that out for me.

Ohh that makes a lot more sense thank you

Also something to add that further supports the notation against needing to use all variables, in another college board question they had an answer not use all the terms listed. Question: -------------------------------------------------------------------- Answer to c ii source...

This is a spring problem From this, it says I need to answer in terms of kinematic friction which to me doesn't make much sense. I also looked at similar questions online to the "in terms of" problems and they don't use all four variables in their derived equation. Do I not need to use all...

Oh okay thank you so much for your time

Oh okay, that makes more sense, also if we didn't apply some force wouldn't the applied force be the downhill force from the normal force? So if we didn't do anything the applied force would just be mgsin(a)

If we had a pulley and string would that work? Also sorry I'm a little confused but what does the spring system show us?

I know you find the static friction of an incline by raising it until it begins to move and then measure the tangent of that angle, but I'm not sure how I'm supposed to show a relationship or create a procedure based off that.
