Serway & Jewett β Circular Motion and Other Applications of Newton's Laws: Problem 36
A truck is moving with constant acceleration \(a\) up a hill that makes an angle \(\phi\) with the horizontal as in Figure P6.36. A small sphere of mass \(m\) is suspended from the ceiling of the truck by a light cord. If the pendulum makes a constant angle \(\theta\) with the perpendicular to the ceiling, what is \(a\)?
