A crate of mass m = 2.00 kg is released from rest at the top of an inclined plane as seen in the figure. The crate starts out at height h = 0.200 m above the top of the table, the table height is H = 2.00 m, and θ = 48.0°. What is the acceleration (in m/s2) of the crate while it slides down the incline? What is the speed (in m/s) of the crate when it leaves the incline? At what horizontal distance (in m) from the end of the table will the crate hit the ground?

A crate of mass 

m = 2.00 kg

 is released from rest at the top of an inclined plane as seen in the figure. The crate starts out at height 

h = 0.200 m

 above the top of the table, the table height is 

H = 2.00 m,

 and 

θ = 48.0°.
