The correct answer is:
$4.9 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}$ in vertical direction
$4.9 \mathrm{~ms}^{-2}$ in vertical direction
$m g \sin \theta=m a$
$\therefore \quad a=g \sin \theta$
where $\mathrm{a}$ is along the inclined plane
$\therefore \quad$ vertical component of acceleration is $\mathrm{g} \sin ^2 \theta$
$\therefore \quad$ relative vertical acceleration of $A$ with respect to $B$ is
$\therefore \quad a=g \sin \theta$
where $\mathrm{a}$ is along the inclined plane
$\therefore \quad$ vertical component of acceleration is $\mathrm{g} \sin ^2 \theta$
$\therefore \quad$ relative vertical acceleration of $A$ with respect to $B$ is
