Homework Statement
The question asks, At what angle would the straight need to be inclined at in order for the acceleration of the pod from B to C to be 0m/s^2?
and if the straight was inclined at 3 degrees calculate the final velocity
the coefficient of friction is 0.17 the mass is 6000kg the distance is 172m
Homework Equations
i think my teacher said to use M (coefficient of friction) = tan (theta)
but i have no idea how to do this :s any help will be greatly appreciated !
The Attempt at a Solution
I'm really not sure about any of this at the moment, but if you could point me in the right direction that would be great.
thanks.
edit:
sorry if I'm sounding impatient, but if anyone knows the slightest thing of this could you please lend a helping hand, that would be much appreciated.. this thing is driving me insane lol - if you have a formula i could use or anything :s, if you need more information i probably have it
