A projectile starts from rest and moves 6.1 m down a frictionless ramp inclined at 12◦ with the horizontal. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s With what speed will it leave the ramp? Answer in units of m/s.

OpenStudy (shamim):

90-12=?

OpenStudy (shamim):

Response plz. I wanna help u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am not so sure how to solve the problem

OpenStudy (shamim):

Ok

OpenStudy (shamim):

90-13=78degree

OpenStudy (shamim):

So ramp makes angle 78 degree with vertical. Right?

OpenStudy (shamim):

Now the component of g along the ramp is g*cos78=?

OpenStudy (shamim):

If u feel confusion then i will give u an attachment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you please give me an attachment I still don't understand

OpenStudy (shamim):

Ok

OpenStudy (shamim):

Actuallh i m frm an android phone. So little difficult to draw

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its okay, dont worry. Can you try to explain it?

OpenStudy (shamim):

Plz c my attachment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I see what you have done, I just dont understand why its like that

OpenStudy (shamim):

Its an inclined plane. Right?

OpenStudy (shamim):

For a free fall body acceleration will b g Right?

OpenStudy (shamim):

N for inclined plane acceleration will b less than g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (shamim):

Aceelerstion along inclined plane will b a component of g

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right

OpenStudy (shamim):

Feel free to ask if u hv any more confusion
