    surface‚ accelerating because of an unbalanced force. The rate at which an object travels down the slope is dependent upon how tilted the slope is; the greater the tilt of the plane‚ the faster the rate which an object will slide down. Thus‚ if a physics cart is released on at a steep slope‚ the acceleration of the cart is expected to roll down the slope at a faster rate. As shown in figure 1‚ when a cart is released on an inclined plane‚ there’s always two to four forces acting upon the cart – the
