What are the steps to find distance the ball will travel from the bottom of the incline before it stops.

Transcribed Image Text:### Physics Experiment: Analyzing Motion on an Incline Plane
**Overview:**
This diagram illustrates an experiment involving a ball on an inclined plane. It is designed to study the motion of the ball when friction is minimal.
**Diagram Details:**
- **Incline Parameters:**
- **Mass of the Ball:** 0.054 kg
- **Height of Incline (h):** 0.09 m
- **Length of Incline (L):** 1.22 m
- The incline is specified to be frictionless, meaning no energy loss due to friction is considered for this segment.
- **Surface Parameters:**
- **Coefficient of Friction (μ):** 0.053 between the ball and the floor. This value represents the friction the ball encounters once it leaves the incline and travels on the flat surface.
- **Distance (d):**
- Indicated on the horizontal surface represents the distance traveled by the ball after descending the incline.
**Instructions for the Experiment:**
Treat the incline as frictionless, focusing only on the effects of friction once the ball reaches the floor. The experiment aims to analyze how friction affects the ball's motion over a flat surface after moving down a frictionless incline.
This setup is useful for understanding concepts such as gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, and the role of friction in motion.
