A New Dynamics Cart on an Inclined Plane.
Theodorsson, Pall
Physics Teacher, v33 n7 p458-59 Oct 1995
Presents an experiment to study the acceleration of a cart moving up and down an inclined plane. Demonstrates how multitiming and the study of the movement in both directions allows the determination of the component of gravitational force along an inclined plane without any assumptions about friction.
