1.	Describe galileo experiments concerning motion of object on inclined planes galileo 's experiment with the second plane(a) at same inclination angle as the first (b) with increased smoothness (c ) with reducedangle ofinclination (d) with zero angle of inclination
Answer» SOLUTION :Whena ballrollsfrom thetop of an inclinedplaneto itsbottom , it movesomedistanceafterreachingthe groungcontinuesto moveon toanotherinclinedplaneof sameangleofinclination. It isshownin the figure(a) .
