Answer #1

Yes it will, If the force table was tilted down on the side of the Masses , then the masses would also tilt down. This would affect the equilibrium between the two sides. So to balance both sides with equal Total Forces, then mass on the resultant side would have to be increased accordingly.

To calculate the error subtract component of two masses along the incline {(m sin(3)} form the mass calculated and get the difference between these two masses.
