Inclined Plane
|
Let us define an inclined plane.
An inclined plane, is a flat supporting surface tilted at an angle. It has one end higher than the other. It is used for raising or lowering a load. Use of an inclined plane provides greater mechanical advantage. Examples of an inclined plane are ramps, slides, stairs, water slides and others. |

|
Use the given link to download the Apps.
https://www.walter-fendt.de/html5/phen/
|
Point to the file in the downloads folder | I have already downloaded Apps on Physics to my Downloads folder. |
Point to html5phen folder in the Downloads folder. | After downloading, html5phen folder appears in the Downloads folder. |
Double click on html5phen folder. | Double click on html5phen folder. |
Point to Apps in java script format and htm format. | Now double-click on the phen folder.
In this folder, we see Apps in java script and htm format. |
Point to the htm formats Apps. | We will use the Apps with htm file format. |
Point to Inclined Plane Apps. | To open Inclined Plane press Ctrl, F keys simultaneously.
In the search bar type inclined plane. |
Right click on inclinedplane_en.htm file.
|
Right click on inclinedplane_en.htm file.
|
Cursor on the interface. | This is the interface of Inclined plane. |
Point to green panel. | The green panel shows different parameters that we can change. |
Point to Reset and Start button. | Reset button on the top of the green panel helps to edit values.
|
Point to the Slow motion. | Slow motion check-box is used to observe the motion steadily. |
Point to Springscale and Force vectors | Then we have Springscale and Force vectors radio buttons.
By default Springscale is selected. |
Click on Start button. | Click on Start button. |
Point to the block. | Notice that a load is pulled by the springscale. |
Click on the Pause button. | Click on the Pause button. |
Click on the radio button of Force vectors. | Now select Force vectors radio button. |
Point to the arrows. | Observe that there are five arrows pointing in different directions. |
Point to the white box for Angle of inclination, Weight, Coefficient of friction. | We can change the values of:
Angle of inclination, Weight and Coefficient of friction in the white colour boxes. |
Highlight the line from the App. | Note that these values can be changed within certain limits. |
Click on Reset button. | Click on Reset button. |
Show the changes when the values changed to 0 and 90 degrees.
Change the Angle of inclination to 45 degrees and press Enter. |
Here we can change the Angle of inclination from 0 degrees to 90 degrees.
|
Now click on Start button. | Now click on Start button. |
When it reaches in the middle of the inclined plane click on Pause button. | When the load reaches the middle of the inclined plane click on Pause button. |
Point to the pink vector. | Notice that the pink vector shows the force of gravity (mg).
|
Point to blue and red vectors. | The blue and red vectors are the resolution vectors of gravity. |
Point to red vector. | The red vector is perpendicular to the surface of inclined plane. |
Point to blue vector and incline plane. | The blue vector is parallel to the surface of the inclined plane. |
In the incline plane point to each angles(inclined plane png file.)
Sum of the interior angle of a triangle is 180 degrees. |
If theta (θ) is 45 degrees, then this angle is 90 degrees.
|
Slide Number 7
Resolution of vectors
|
To calculate the magnitude of the forces we need to know theta value.
Then angle(90-θ) is equal this angle through interior angle property.
Here the angle would be 90 degrees.
So 90 minus theta plus 90 plus x equals to 180 Therefore, x equals to theta |
Slide Number 8
Resolution of Vectors
|
Using basic trigonometry we can resolve the parallel and perpendicular components.
|
Slide Number 9
Resolution of Vector
|
Parallel force is Sin theta.
sin theta equals to F(parallel) upon mg. Let’s rearrange the equation. F(parallel) equals to mg sin theta. Similarly we can resolve the perpendicular component. F(perpendicular) equals to mg cos theta. |
Slide Number 10
Numerical A mass of 1.02 kg rests on a plane that is inclined at an angle of 30 degrees. From resolution of vectors find parallel and perpendicular components. Calculate the necessary force to pull the mass. |
Let us solve this numerical and verify the answers with the ones shown in the App. |
Click on the Reset button. | Click on the Reset button to reset the App. |
1.02 Kg = 10 N.
Change the weight to 10 N. |
In the App change the values according to the numerical.
First let us convert 1.02 Kg into Newton and enter the value in the Weight box. |
Change the Angle of inclination to 30 degrees and press Enter. | Next change the Angle of inclination to 30 degrees and press Enter. |
Now click on Start button. | Now click on Start button. |
When it reaches in the middle of the incline plane click on Pause button. | Again click on Pause button when the load reaches the center of the inclined plane. |
Point to Normal force, Parallel component, and Necessary force. | Observe that the App has calculated the parameters. |
Next we will calculate using the formulae. | |
