Determining Coefficient of Static Friction at 15 Degree Inclination
Question: A mass of 4 Kg rests on a horizontal plane.The plane is gradually inclined until an angle 15o with the horizontal, the mass just begins to slide.What is the coefficient of static friction between the block and the surface. Solution: Mass of the block 4 Kg Angle of inclination $${\theta=15^\circ}$$ At a particular angle…

Inclined Plane: Resolving Weight Forces
Question: A mass of 2 Kg lies on an inclined plane as shown below.Resolve its weight along and perpendicular to the plane. (take g=10 ms-2 ) Solution: Inclined plane shopify.pxf.io/1r4onx Resolving the weight into two components The component which is along the plane is $${mg\sin\theta}$$ $${20 \sin\ 30^\circ}$$ $${20 (\frac{1}{2})}$$ $${=10 \ N}$$ The component…
