An object, m, is released from rest and slides down on a smooth inclined plane with a distance 5, as shown in figure 1(a). The same object, m, is released vertically from rest and allowed to fall freely through the same distance $ , as shown in figure 1(b). These experiments were repeated by recording the time, t.

During 17th century, physicist carried out a series of experiments to investigate how gravity
affect the acceleration, There were no accurate methods to measure short times, so physicist
used an object on a smooth inclined plane to increase the time taken for the object's motion.
An object, m, is released from rest and slides down on a smooth inclined plane with a distance
5, as shown in figure 1(a). The same object, m, is released vertically from rest and allowed to
fall freely through the same distance $, as shown in figure 1(b). These experiments were
repeated by recording the time, t. Sketch distance-time graph to representing the above
experiment

(a)
(b)
Figure 1: Diagram
Assuming the frictional force between the plane and the object is negligible, it is observed that
the object takes longer to travet in figure 1(a) than figure 1 (b) explain the reason behind.
Compare the acceleration of the object in figure |{a) with the acceleration of the object in
figure I (b). Support your answer with eateutation fg 9.81 m5 )
