Applying Newton's Second Law - Inclined Planes

This worksheet is designed to assess your understanding of Newton's second law and how it applies to inclined surfaces.

AB
A 4.50-kg object accelerates down a plane inclined at 36°. If the coefficient of friction is 0.548, determine the acceleration of the object.1.42 m/s^2
An 18-kg box is released on a 33.0° incline and accelerates at 0.300 m/s^2. What is the coefficient of friction?0.61
A box with a mass of 455 g is lying on a hill which has an incline of 15.0°. a) Ignoring friction, what is the acceleration of the box down the hill? b) If there is a coefficient of friction of 0.20, what will be the acceleration of the box down the hill? c) How much force is required to push the box up the ramp at a constant speed?a) 2.54 m/s^2, b) 0.64 m/s^2, c) 2.02 N
The coefficient of friction between a metal block and the inclined surface over which it will slide is 0.42. If the surface makes an angle of 33° with the horizontal and the block has a mass of 100 kg, what force is required to slide the block at constant speed up the plane?879.84 N
