Answer:
4.9 m/s²
Explanation:
Draw a free body diagram. There are two forces on the object:
Weight force mg pulling straight down,
and normal force N pushing perpendicular to the plane.
Sum the forces in the parallel direction.
∑F = ma
mg sin θ = ma
a = g sin θ
a = (9.8 m/s²) (sin 30°)
a = 4.9 m/s²
