Question
a frictionless plane is 10.0 m long and inclined at 31.0 degree a sled starts at the bottom with an initial speed of 5.40 m/s up to incline. when the sled reaches the point at which it momentarily stops, a second sled is released from the top of the incline with an initial speed v1. both sleds reach the bottom of the cline at the same time.
