| Forces on an inclined plane |   |
| Three forces Weight (mg), Normal reaction, R and Friction ,T act on a particle on an inclined plane. The resultant of these three forces is shown as the vector in orange. Adjust the three forces so that the system is in equilibrium. When you have produced a situation of equilibrium, compare the ratio of T/R with tan (the angle of the slope). | |
