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

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…
