Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo
ntal surface. Lift one end of the surface up and measure the angle the surface makes with the horizontal at the moment the block begins to slide. B. A Drop the block from different heights and measure the time of fall from each height. C. Place the block on a rough horizontal surface. Give the block an initial velocity and then let it come to rest. Measure the initial velocity and the distance the block moves in coming to rest. D. Use a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force.
D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force
Explanation:
For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.
