A Problem of Relative, Constrained Motion
arXiv:physics/9808049 · doi:10.1119/1.880100
Abstract
We develop a new method to determine the acceleration of a block sliding down along the face of a moving wedge. We have been able to link the solution of this problem to that of the inclined plane problem of elementary physics, thus providing a simpler solution to it.
