    What Angle Is Needed to Simulate 0.8g Deceleration on an Inclined Plane?

    You are missing the point of this forum, which is not here for the purpose of "providing the most eloquent answer to a specific question" but rather for the purpose of helping people figure out how to GET answers to their questions. We're not giving away fish, we're teaching people how to fish...

    What Angle Is Needed to Simulate 0.8g Deceleration on an Inclined Plane?

    Yes, I have a little knowledge of trig, I am aware that c^2 = q^2 = b^2 and that Sine Theta = Opposite / Hypotenuse and that Cos Theta = Adjacent / Hypotenuse.

    What Angle Is Needed to Simulate 0.8g Deceleration on an Inclined Plane?

    I am a truck driver, the law requires me to restrain my load of 100kg, to resist a forward braking force (deceleration) of 0.8g. If, I took the 100kg load and tilted it (inclined plane), what angle of tilt, would be required to represent a force of 0.8g ? How does one calculate the angle...
