This applet demonstrates motion of a body on an inclined plane. The angle of inclination, the mass, and the coefficient of friction can be set by the user and the resultant can be viewed.
Please note that this resource requires at least version 1.4.2 of Java.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Dynamics: Forces and Motion
Unit Title: Frictional Forces This simulation demonstrates motion of a block being pulled up an incline plane at constant velocity by a spring. By changing the angle of inclination, mass, and coefficient of friction, students can better understand how frictional force affects the movement of an object on a hill. Available in HTML5 or Java.
