Constrained Motion - Visualizations - 2





A simple example of constrained motion : Two blocks on a fixed wedge.
The masses in the above example are in kilograms and acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 meters per sec2 .
But note that the visualization is intended to give you a general idea and it is not really drawn to scale, or with much numerical precision.

Newton's Laws of Motion are typically used while figuring out the behavior in cases such as the above.
The tutorial below introduces you to the application of Newton's Laws of Motion.
