The Inclined Plane - A heavy load may be raised more easily by pulling it up along a sloping surface than by lifting it vertically. For example, heavy barrels are often loaded into vans by passing two ropes round them and hauling them up an incline formed by two stout ..

A heavy load may be raised more easily by pulling it up along a sloping surface than by lifting it vertically. For example, heavy barrels are often loaded into vans by passing two ropes round them and hauling them up an incline formed by two stout planks held apart by iron rod..

The situation here is almost the same as the situation in the figure, just that the body here is sliding up instead of down, the friction acts downward. Component perpendicular to the surface Component parallel to the surface (Note that the body is being pulled with a constant velocit..

Consider a solid cylinder of mass M and radius R, rolling down a plane inclined at an angle with the horizontal. Let us assume that the cylinder rolls without slipping. The condition for rolling without slipping is that at each instant, the point of contact P (rather, the lin..

A plane has length and breadth. It has two dimensions. Any flat surface is a plane. In our study, we deal with figures drawn on plane surface..

A plane is a surface such that every point of the line joining any two points on it, lies on i..

A plane is a surface such that every point of the line joining any two points on it, lies on it. The line containing any two points in a plane lies wholly in that plane. An angle has only one and only one bisector. Through any point outside a line, one and only one..

The following rays are usually considered while constructing ray diagrams: A ray of light incident on a plane mirror at 90 degree gets reflected from the mirror along the same path. A ray of light falling on a plane mirror at any angle gets reflected from the mirror such tha..

It has been found that if the mirrors are inclined at an angle q then the number of images is given by the relation If is not a whole number, then the number of images will be rounded off to the nearest integer. This can be verified by actual drawing. If the mirrors are inclined..

When both the cars are moving in the same direction, i.e., q = 0 0 degree..
