Question

Momo with mass m is sliding down an inclined plane that makes an angle Φ relative to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic friction between Momo and the inclined plane is μk. Obtain an expression for Momo's acceleration along the incline.

Assign a rotated Cartesian plane so that the acceleration is along the positive x-axis and the normal force is along the positive y-axis.

Momo with mass m is sliding down an inclined plane that makes an angle O relative to the horizontal. The coefficient of kinetic
friction between Momo and the inclined plane is uk. Obtain an expression for Momo's acceleration along the incline.
Assign a rotated Cartesian plane so that the acceleration is along the positive x-axis and the normal force is along the positive y-axis.
The component of the weight parallel to Momo's acceleration is wy = mg
The magnitude of the frictional force is f = Hk
The normal force on Momo is n = mg
0.
With these expressions and applying Newton's second law, we arrive at an expression for Momo's acceleration:
a =
