3. A 1.23 kg object slides down a 1.25 m incline of 35º. Use the data table to construct a graph for force due to gravity vs. distance. Trial 1 Trial 2 Trial 3 Averages Distance (m) 1.25 1.32 1.28
4. Based on the graph in #3, calculate the work done by gravity. Assume work is constant for this data.
5. Using the data from #3, construct a free body diagram and calculate work done by gravity. Explain how this value compare to the value determined graphically in #4.
Remember that this object is on an angle. You'll need to multiply the value for work by cos0
Keep in mind that you'll need to use the angle that forms between the force of gravity and distance.
