I have this problem that I'm not too sure about...
it states...
you have an inclined plane with a mass of (capital) M. The angle of the incline of the plane is alpha. there is also a mass on the plane that has a mass of (lower case) m.
All of the surfaces (the inclined plane, the surface the plane lies on and the mass *ARE ALL FRICTIONLESS*.
Fast must the inclined plane be moving in order for the mass to stay exactly where it is.
(Answer in terms of the variables. Consider gravity to be -10 m/s2 [taking down to be negative]).
I'd appreciate any help!
THANKS
