A block of 50 kg mass is on an inclined plane. The block is connected to another hanging mass M by an inextensible massless string through two massless pulleys as shown in the figure below. The coefficient of static friction between the block and the inclined plane is 0.3. Neglecting pulley friction, the minimum value of M required to start the upward motion of the block is ________ kg (rounded off to 1 decimal place).


Correct : 17.7
