1) A mass M is attached to a mass that rests on a fixed frictionless incline of angle 30. The massless string passes over a massless frictionless pulley. The mass M is initially held at rest a distance q below the top of the incline and the mass is at a distance d below the top of the incline. The mass M is then released. 30 a) Find the Euler-Lagrange equations for this system. b) Find the position of the mass M as a function of time. c) What is the tension in the string? 1) A mass M is attached to a mass that rests on a fixed frictionless incline of angle 30.
