National Building Regulations for trolley and wheelchair ramps specify that a ramp must
be 6 m in length, while the angle of the ramp must be 4,76°. The combined mass of the
trolley and its contents is 80 kg. The coefficient of static friction between the wheels of
the trolley and the ramp is 0,1.

friction to static friction by plotting the values of the two experiments on the same set
of axes.
