Answer:
Not enough information, it depends on the mass of the pea.
Explanation:
The maximum static friction coefficient: [tex]f_{s,max}=[/tex]μ[tex]_s*F_N[/tex], where [tex]F_N[/tex] is the normal force.
[tex]F_N=m*g*cos(x)[/tex], where x is the angle, m is the mass, and g is the acceleration caused by gravity (9.8 [tex]\frac{m}{s^2}[/tex]).
Therefore, [tex]F_N=m*9.8*cos(15)[/tex].
Therefore, [tex]f_{s,max}=[/tex]μ[tex]_s*m*9.8*cos(15)[/tex]
Unfortunately, though, we need to know the mass of the pea in order to determine the friction coefficient.
So, there is Not enough information, because it depends on the mass of the pea.
