Deriving Speed at an Inclined Plane
If you're searching for the velocity of the block at the very bottom of the ramp, you actually utilize Energy conservation instead of kinematics. PE = mgh KE = 1/2*mv^2 The block is at rest on top of the incline plane, which means no KE and only PE. That means it starts out with a total E...- dabig2
