Question
For motion on the inclined plane, what factors do you think may cause the experimental value of 'g' to be different from the accepted value?

1-Friction in the wheels
2-Air resistance
3-Error in angle measurement
4-Initial speed not equal to zero
5-Mass on the cart
6-Length of the track
 
If the air resistance was substantial (i.e. large enough to cause an effect),  how would it effect the experimental value of ‘g’ that you would measure?

1-The measured value will be less than actual value.
2-The measured value will be greater than actual value.
3-There will be no effect of air resistance on the measured value of 'g'.
 
What is the expected time it would take for the cart to roll from one end  of the track to the other if it starts from rest, and the angle of incline is 10∘∘. Take length of the track to be 62 cm?
