Exercise 1. In figure 1, the inclined plane has mass 20 kg and is nailed to the horizontal table of height H = 1.5 m. The block of mass 2 kg is released from rest at h = 0.6 meters above the surface of the table. The block slides downward, always frictionless on an inclined plane that has an angle of q = 40 °.
a) Argue what physical principles should be used to describe the behavior of the mass.
b) Draw the free-body diagram and the vectors of its path until it touches the ground.
c) Determine the acceleration and the time it takes for the block to descend on the incline plane.
d) Determine the time of flight of the mass and the maximum range R of the block measured from the base of the table.
