Answer:

Taking forces along the plane

F cos θ - M g sin θ -100 = M a net of forces along the plane

F = (M a + M g * .5 + 100) / .866 solving for F

F = (80 * 1.5 + 80 * 9.8 * .5 + 100) / .866 = 707 N

F = 707 N acting along the plane

Fn = F sin θ + M g cos θ forces acting perpendicular to plane

Fn = 707 * 1/2 + 80 * 9.8 * .866 = 1030 Newtons forces normal to plane

(this would give a coefficient of friction of 100 / 1030 = .097 = Fn)
