If the slope of a graph of the acceleration of a cart vs. the number of paper clips attached by a string and suspended over a pulley is ( 20 cm/s2) / clip, and if the slope of a graph
of number of paper clips needed to maintain equilibrium vs. ramp slope is 47 clips / unit of
ramp slope, then how many cm/s2 of acceleration should correspond to 1 unit of ramp slope?
If 52 clips are necessary 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?
Since we have 20cm/s^2/clip and we need 47 clips to make a unit then 20cm/s^2*47clips=940cm/s^2/unit of ramp slope.
I dont nderstand the second part about the 52 clips"
Don't worry about the second question, which I didn't phrase very clearly.
