Question
A car of mass m is on an icy driveway inclined at an angle θ as in 5.12a.
(A) Find the acceleration of the car, assuming the driveway is frictionless. (B) Suppose the car is released from rest at the top of the incline and the distance from the car’s front bumper to the bottom of the incline is d. How long does it take the front bumper to reach the bottom of the hill, and what is the car’s speed as it arrives there?

- You have put a sonar device at the top of a frictionless inclined plane, as shown in the diagram below. That device allows you to measure the distance an object is from the device, as well as the speed and the acceleration of that object. If we decide that the origin (h = 0) is at the sonar device, we want to know what the height change is as we slide down the incline. 0 For an angle below the horizontal of 6.46, we see that our object has slid a distance 1.13 m, as measured along the incline itself. Calculate the height change in meters - and report your answer as a negative number. (This value would be useful for calculating the change in gravitational potential energy, as we will do in the lab.) h=o 10% O i 26 QUATU 99+ hp X 55 83°F 3:11 PM 10/16/2022 Ctrl 0arrow_forwardA frictionless plane is 10.0 m long and inclined at 42.0°.
