A body starts slipping down an incline and move, half meter in half second. How long will it take to move the next half meter?

let the mass of the body= m

Angle of inclination = θ


Acceleration of the body= a


According to the free body diagram,





Substituting the value of R in the above equation,




In first half meter, the distance covered s= 0.5 m


Time taken t= 0.5sec


Initial velocity u= 0


Using equation of motion,


s=ut + at2



m/s2


For next half meter,


Velocity u=2 m/s


Acceleration a= 4 m/s2


Distance s= 0.5m


Using s=ut + at2
