V105. Video Demonstration: Equilibrium on an Inclined Plane

One type of net force problem involves motion on inclined planes.  For such situations, it makes sense to tilt the axes so that one of the axes is parallel to the plane.  That's because the acceleration will be along the plane, but there will be no acceleration perpendicular to the plane.  See example 5-9 in the text for the solution of an inclined plane problem. 

Now you'll do a video-based exercise on inclined planes.  Here's what to do. Watch the video clip below.  Then, do the corresponding WebAssign assessment.
