    Hi Kevin, I tried using a different approach for this problem where I drew the forces acting on the block and equated the spring force to the mgsin(30) component of gravity that is parallel to the slope. However, when using this method I don’t get any of the answers that are listed, including the correct one. I was wondering why this method doesn’t work, and if it does, where I went wrong.
