An object is on a frictionless inclined plane. The plane is inclined at an angle of 16.9 degrees with the horizontal. Using the accerlation due gravity from your reference table. What is the magnitude of object's acceleration?An object is on a frictionless inclined plane. The plane is inclined at an angle of 16.9 degrees with the hori?because its frictionless the only force acting on the mass is the parallel force. This means that the acceleration is equal to g x sin(angle) or 9.8sin16.9 just solve that. You get gsin(angle) when you break mg into its components ( mgcos(angle) and mgsin(angle))and do Fnet equals mass x acceleration. The masses cancel and and you are left with gsin(angle)
