Forces in Equilibrium on Inclined Plane (Tilted Axes)
This applet helps teachers and students to study a system in equilibrium under the influence of three forces.
An object on an inclined plane is modeled, with the forces weight, normal-reaction, and static-friction depicted.
Users can vary the angle of inclination and the weight of the object.
The components are shown relative to tilted-axes, the x-axis being parallel to the inclined plane.
A check-box toggles the axes.
A button toggles the complementary angles.
The usual facilities for reset, zoom and drag are enabled.
