Final Velocity of a Rough Block on a Fixed Wedge Calculator
Final Velocity of a Rough Block on a Fixed Wedge Calculator
Calculate the final velocity of a rough block sliding down a fixed wedge using energy conservation:
\[
v = \sqrt{\frac{2gh\,(1 – \mu_k\,\cot\theta)}{}}
\]
where \(h\) is the height, \(\theta\) is the wedge angle, \(\mu_k\) is the coefficient of kinetic friction, and \(g\) is the gravitational acceleration.
* Ensure that \(\mu_k < \tan\theta\) so the block can slide.
