The inclined plane is studied by mechanics and, to calculate it, we use Newton's Second Law.
Is a block of mass “m” supported by an inclined ramp at an angle? with respect to the horizontal plane. Despise the friction.
Forces acting on the body are: image 1
P: Force weight = P = m.g
Where: g = 9,8 m / s2
m = body mass given in kg.
FN: Normal reaction force to the plane.
When we neglect friction we notice that the body moves downwards. image 2
Technolgy influenced many variables throughout time, such as imperial expansion, knowledge of the environment, better medical development, and many other things. If we didn't have the technological advancements that we did throughout the ages, the world would be very different from today. Many things could have gone astray and history would be very different. For example, if boats were never invented, immigration and exploration would be almost non-existent, and the Americas wouldn't have been discovered by Europe. Another thing that would have changed is international trade, trading between countries would be impossible without the use of boats unless the countries were connected by land.
Hope this helps :)
