A cart is rolling down a ramp if the angle of the ramp is increased to make the ramp steeper the cart will do what?
The cart will go faster if the angle increases.
If a ramp were coated with a smoother surface the ramp and efficiency would?
The smoother the surface of a ramp, the greater is the danger of a vehicle slipping and losing traction.A wet, smooth ramp could cause a pedestrian to slip over and be hurt.
What is the relationship between the length of a ramp and the speed at the bottom?
The Object moving down the Ramp will have its POTENTIAL Energy (Speed=0) at the top of the Ramp changed to Kinetic Energy as it travels DOWN the Ramp. For any given INCLINE the LENGTH of the Ramp will dictate its HEIGHT. The higher the top of the ramp, the greater the Potential Energy to be Converted into Kinetic Energy. The Formula for K.E. is : K.E. = 1/2 Mass x Velocity2 (the 2 means Squared) So as the Potential Energy increases so does the Kinetic Energy. while the Mass is a Constant. Therefore the Velocity MUST increase as well to balance the K.E. equation.
A ramp increases what of the input force?
The height.=====================Answer #2:The mechanical advantage.
Is velocity changing if a cart is going down a ramp?
The velocity increases due to the fact, the ramp is facing downwards in a certain angle. The longer the ramp, the faster the cart will travel!
When you increase the height of a ramp which increases the angle does the efficiency for kinetic energy increase of decrease?
The energy efficiency increases as the angle increases.
If a person exerted an effort force of 250 newtons to roll the barrel along the ramp what is the efficiency of the ram?
You would need to know the length and height of the ramp.
How do you work out the gradiant on a ramp?
Divide the height of the ramp by the length of the ramp (rise over run).
How do you increase the efficiency of pushing a concrete block up a wooden ramp?
Reduce the friction of it and the ramp, for example, mounting it on wheels.

When the mover pushes the box up the ramp there is friction between the box and the ramp What is the efficiency of the ramp?
It depends on the mass of the box, the force exerted, the total displacement and the height the box was moved.

Ernest built an access ramp to his house. It has a horizontal length of 8 feet, a vertical height of 3.9 feet, and the length of the ramp is 8.9 feet.Is the statement true or falseThe ramp is perfectly square?
true
A constant push of 250 N is needed to slide a crate that weighs 400 N along a 2 meter long ramp If the ramp raises the crate 1 meter what is the ramp's efficiency?
80%
