Question 1
A 5 kg block slides down an inclined plane at 45 degrees with a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.2. Calculate the acceleration of the block.
💡 Hint: You’ll need to break down the forces acting along the incline.
Question 2
Design a small experiment to measure the coefficient of friction between two materials using a block and a scale. Detail your method.
💡 Hint: Think about how to effectively measure the forces involved.
