What is the formula to calculate acceleration on an inclined plane?

a = g

a = g * sin(θ)

a = g * cos(θ)

a = g * tan(θ)

If an object slides down an inclined plane without friction, how does its acceleration compare to the acceleration due to gravity?

Greater than gravity

Equal to gravity

Less than gravity

Depends on the angle of inclination

In which direction does the net force act on an object on an inclined plane with friction, assuming the object is sliding downward?

Up the plane

Down the plane

Perpendicular to the plane

Opposite to the direction of motion

How does the mass of an object affect its acceleration on an inclined plane?

Acceleration increases with mass

Acceleration decreases with mass

Acceleration is independent of mass

Acceleration is directly proportional to mass

Which of the following factors can significantly affect the acceleration of an object on an inclined plane?

Friction

Air resistance

Surface roughness

All of the above

What happens to the acceleration of an object on an inclined plane if the angle of inclination is increased?

Acceleration increases

Acceleration decreases

Acceleration remains the same

Acceleration becomes negative

How does the coefficient of friction affect the acceleration of an object on an inclined plane?

Higher coefficient of friction results in higher acceleration

Lower coefficient of friction results in higher acceleration

Coefficient of friction does not affect acceleration

Acceleration depends solely on the mass of the object

What is the relationship between the angle of inclination and the acceleration of an object on an inclined plane with friction?

Directly proportional

Inversely proportional

No relationship

Depends on the mass of the object

If an object is placed on an inclined plane with an angle of inclination equal to 90 degrees, what is its acceleration?

Zero

Equal to the acceleration due to gravity

Depends on the coefficient of friction

Infinity
