Two blocks each of mass $M$ are resting on a frictionless inclined plane as shown in the figure. Then:

Describe Galileo's experiment of an inclined plane regarding motion.

Two blocks of equal masses are tied to the ends of a light string. The string passes over a massless pulley fixed on a frictionless surface as shown in the figure. The acceleration of the centre of mass of the blocks is ($g$ = acceleration due to gravity).

$A$ solid sphere,a hollow sphere,and a ring are released from the top of a frictionless inclined plane,causing them to slide down the plane. For which object is the acceleration down the plane the maximum?

$A$ double inclined plane as shown in the figure has a fixed horizontal base and smooth faces with the same angle of inclination of $30^{\circ}$. $A$ block of mass $m_2 = 300 \ g$ is on one face and is connected by a cord passing over a frictionless pulley to a second block of mass $m_1 = 200 \ g$ kept on the other face. The acceleration with which the system of the blocks moves is ........ $\%$ of acceleration due to gravity $(g)$.

Why are mountain roads generally made winding upwards rather than going straight up?
