    Acceleration of an inclined plane?

    do i do a=gsin(theta) where g is 9.8

    Acceleration of an inclined plane?

    i am so lost on this, not sure if it's just trial and error or if I can use some type of equation

    Acceleration of an inclined plane?

    If I have a ramp that is 1.143 meters long, and I need to make it incline at a certain angle and height to make sure the acceleration is .5 m/s^2, how would I go about doing that without taking friction into account and without weighing anything?
