Question
multiple choice 1 point which of the following forces does not act on an object sliding down an inclined plane? force of friction force of gravity equilibrant force normal force
Brief Explanations
- Force of friction: Opposes the motion of the object sliding down the incline.
- Force of gravity: Acts vertically downward on the object.
- Normal force: Perpendicular to the surface of the incline, exerted by the incline on the object.
- Equilibrant force: An equilibrant force is a single force that balances out a system of forces. When an object is sliding down an incline, there is no single force that is specifically called an "equilibrant force" acting on it in the context of the basic forces (gravity, normal, friction) that are inherent to the situation of an object on an incline.
