What is the ideal mechanical advantage of inclined plane?
The ideal mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is a ratio describing the length one has to travel to raise a load by a desired height. To obtain this ratio, divide the length of the plane's sloped face by the height of the inclined plane. IMA = Slope length / height
What does a wedge and inclined plane have in common?
slope
Is a skate ramp an inclined plane?
Yes, a skate board ramp is considered an inclined plane. The is because skate rampshave a slope and are not just straight.
How did changing the slope of the inclined plane change your velocity and acceleration values?
If no other external forces act (apart from weight), the acceleration on a fixed slope remains constant. This is because acceleration is given by: a=gsino where g is the acceleration of free fall and o is the angle between the slope and the horizontal.
What could be done to increase the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane?
It decreasesThe greater the angle, the steeper the inclination, the less effective it is. The greater the horizontal distance traveled for every unit length of height gained, the greater the mechanical advantage. GO Michael cooper repersentin Monticello
How do you figure out the IMA of a inclined plane?
length of slope/ height of slope
What inclined plane is the length of the inclined plane plane divide by its height?
The slope of an inclined plane is found by dividing the rise of the plane by the run of the plane. also the ideal mechanical advantage.
What is the ideal mechanical advantage of inclined plane?
The ideal mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is a ratio describing the length one has to travel to raise a load by a desired height. To obtain this ratio, divide the length of the plane's sloped face by the height of the inclined plane. IMA = Slope length / height
Can an inclined plane have a mechanical advantageof less than 1?
No. The slope would have to be shorter than the height.
What is the mechanical advantage of an incline plane?
MA of inclined plane:Distance moved parallel to slope / vertical distance moved:Reciprocal of sin of incline angle (from horizontal):1 / ( sin ( incline angle ) )
What does a wedge and inclined plane have in common?
slope
What is another name for an inclined plane?
A slope.
Does a long gently sloped inclined plane or a short steep inclined plane have the greatest mechanical advantage?
Long gently slope inclined plane
Is the wheels on your chair an inclined plane?
No they are not. An inclined plane is a flat surface which has a slope to it i.e. it is flat but not level.
What is type or name of an inclined plane?
It's a slope
What are the characteristics of an inclined plane?
slope, lenth and hight
What type of simple machine is a slope?
The type of simple machine that a slope is, is a inclined plane
