About This Lesson
Explore forces, energy and work as you push household objects up and down a ramp. Lower and raise the ramp to see how the angle of inclination affects the parallel forces acting on the file cabinet. Graphs show forces, energy and work;
Sample Learning Goals
•Explain the motion of an object on an incline plane by drawing free body diagrams.
•Calculate the net force on an object on an incline.
