Inclined Definition and 1000 Threads

hey a while back my physics teacher attempted to teach me inclined plane problems, however he only showed me once and I understood absolutely nothing. I was hoping that some kind fellow out there might be able to help me out, either by explaining me all the possible calculations involved...

A car traveling at 25.0m/s runs out of gas while traveling up a 22.0 degree slope. How far up the hill will it coast before starting to roll back down? i tried doing (2*25m/s)^2 / cos22*-9.8cos68 but that wasn't the right answer... ~help please?

Hi I have a problem that reads: A car drives downhill on a road that is inclined 20 degrees to the horizontal. At a speed on 30 m/s the driver suddenly brakes until the car stops (coefficent of kinetic friction = .8, coefficent of static friction = .9). A. When all of the wheels are locked...

Hi, I recently did a problem in which a block of definite mass was placed on the top of a inclined plane which was inclined at some angle with the horizontal. The block starts to slide down. What would happen if the inclined plane was not fixed?

I'm basically reading on how the velocity profile is found for a laminar flow of a Newtonian fluid down an inclined plane surface. (x is along the incline, y is perpendicular to the incline) The assumptions being made are - The fluid is Newtonian - It's laminar - It's fully developed - It's...

The formula for calculating the force required to move an object (ignoring friction, etc.) up an inclined plane is: F = Mgsinθ Where: F = force (N) Mg = gravity (9.81m/s²) θ = angle of inclination (degrees out of 360, or radians?) The question I have is: what is used to...

If a car is going up or down an inclined plane, the normal force on the car is just mg cos (theta). However, if a car is turning on an inclined curve, the normal force is mg/cos(theta). Why are the two normal forces not the same? To clarify, here is an example problem: A highway curve...
