Mass on a plane with friction
... 2 attached masses on an inclined plane But how do you determine if acceleration will be up or down the plane? Compare the values of m1gsinθ and m2g to determine which is bigger. If m1gsinθ is bigger it will pull the mass down the plane. If m2g is bigger it will pull the mass up the plane. In genera ...

... It is important to understand the difference between the mass and weight of a body! Mass is an absolute property of a body. It is independent of the gravitational field in which it is measured. The mass provides a measure of the resistance of a body to a change in velocity, as defined by Newton’s se ...

... As we have seen over and over again, a force is a push or a pull, and an unbalanced force causes an object to move (to accelerate). All the motion we have dealt with so far has moved objects from one point in space to another. This type of motion involving a displacement is called translational moti ...
