Friction Board Inclined Plane
Product Code : JA-M-7827
The Friction Board Inclined Plane (SKU JA-M-7827) is a hinged wooden plane for experiments on friction and motion on a slope. This inclined plane friction board is a planed 600 × 75 mm board hinged at one end to a wooden baseboard, with a movable block that fixes the angle of incline in several positions, and it comes with a reversible 100 × 65 mm friction slider. JaincoLab manufactures it in India for school and college physics laboratories.
Specifications
The apparatus consists of a planed wooden board of 600 × 75 mm hinged at one end to a wooden baseboard, a movable block for fixing the angle of incline in a number of positions, and a reversible friction slider of 100 × 65 mm, one side of which is cut so that only half its area touches the plane.

Experiments with the inclined plane friction board
The board is used to measure friction and study motion on a slope: the plane is raised until the slider just begins to move, or the slider is pulled with a force meter, and the reversible slider lets students compare full and half contact areas.
- Finding the coefficient of friction from the angle at which the slider begins to slide
- Studying the relation between limiting friction and the normal reaction
- Comparing friction for full and half contact areas with the reversible slider
- Resolving the weight of a body on an inclined plane into components
- Observing motion down the incline at different angles

Frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the friction board?
The planed wooden board is 600 × 75 mm and the reversible friction slider is 100 × 65 mm.
How is the angle of incline set?
The board is hinged to a wooden baseboard and a movable block fixes the incline in a number of positions.
Why is one side of the slider cut?
One side has only half its area in contact with the plane, so friction can be compared for two contact areas.
