A mass of 5 kg is released from rest on a smooth incline making an angle of 37° to the horizontal. The tangential component of acceleration is closest to:
1.10 m/s²
2.8 m/s²
3.6 m/s²
4.4 m/s²
5.2 m/s²
6.0 m/s²
7.Exactly halfway between 2 of the above answers
8.The negative of one of the answers above
9.It is impossible to determine the tangential component of the block's acceleration
10.I do not know what is meant by "tangential" in this situation

Why is Saturn almost as big as Jupiter, despite its smaller mass?
A) Jupiter's greater mass compresses it more, thus increasing its density. B) Saturn's rings make the planet look bigger. C) Saturn is further from the Sun, thus cooler, and therefore less compact.
