a. In an Incline Plane experiment, a cart has a mass of 496 grams and the weight has an unknown mass; the incline angle is 8.12°, and the cart accelerates up the track at 3.22 m/s2. What is the acceleration of the counter weight? Answer in m/s2and to the fourth decimal place.
b. If the weight that pulls the cart has a mass of 199 grams and the cart accelerates up the track at 1.44 m/s2. What is the tension in the string that connects the weight and the cart? Answer in newtons, and to the fourth decimal place. Use g = 9.81 m/s2.
c. If the cart has a mass of 505 grams, and is at an incline of 18.15°, what is the magnitude of the normal force that prevents the cart from going through the track? Answer in newtons, and to the fourth decimal place. Use g = 9.81 m/s2.
