For me, this experiment sounds fine. Remember to keep some of the variables to be constant though. Can you tell me all the variables you can think of which must be kept constant?
This question just simply needs the knowledge of double angle formula in trigonometry. You just need to change from sin A to sin(A-n) + sin(n).
So, what's the double angle formula for sin A?
First, are the walkers living things? If yes, then are the four forces caused by the intentional movement of the walkers? or are they forces due to nature?
in my opinion, v^2 should be proportional to displacement, if acceleration is constant, as shown by you just now, which is v^2 = v_{i}^2 + 2a_c(x - x_{i}). Is it possible that there is a misprint on the textbook?
ok, I'll guide you from here. 1st, tell me, what are all the forces you can identify? Maybe it's better if you draw a free body diagram for both the slope and the mass, and upload it here.
ok but the thing is, isn't it that the galvanometer and the 2.0kΩ resistor are on different branches? then why does the calculation involve the 2.0kΩ resistance?
