How many cm/s2 of acceleration should correspond to 1 unit of ramp slope if:
- a graph of the acceleration of a cart vs. the number of paper clips attached by a string
and suspended over a pulley has slope ( 30 cm/s2) / clip, and
- a graph of number of paper clips needed to maintain equilibrium vs. ramp slope has slope
33 clips / unit of ramp slope?
If 29 clips are required to match the mass of the cart, then if we could
apply this force to the cart without the extra mass of all those clips, what would be the
acceleration of the cart?
