An inclined plane makes work easier by increasing the distance an object must be moved and changing what other factor?
Moving an object up an inclined plane requires less force compared to lifting it straight up. An inclined plane makes work easier by increasing the distance an object must be moved and changing the height that it spans.decreasing the force.
What is the effective of using an inclined plane to lift an object?
A trade-off is obtained between the force required to move an object and the distance through which it is moved. You can use less force over a longer distance so that you can raise an object that you would not be able to lift.The efficiency of a plane depends on the work done in overcoming friction.
What do you use less when you pull something up an inclined plane 1 energy 2force 3distance or 4strength?
Distance,You would have to use more energy, force and strength to pull something less distanceif it is up an inclined plane.================================Answer #2:The whole idea of an inclined plane is to give you the ability to raise a load to the sameheight with less force than you'd need if you had to lift it. That's why, if you're smart,you roll a barrel up a ramp instead of lifting it straight up to the dock. In return for usingless force, you have to roll it a longer distance to reach the same height.Energy . . .Same, regardless of how you get it up there. Depends only on the difference in height.Force . . .Less needed if you use an inclined plane. That's why they're useful.Distance . . .More if you use an inclined plane. That's the trade-off.Strength . . .Less required when you use an inclined plane.If you had more strength, you'd just lift it and be done with it.
How does an inclined plane reduce the amount of only force needed?
An inclined plane is a surface that is not horizontal (level), with one end higher than the other. Pushing a broken down car is much easier and takes less effort downhill, than to push the same car uphill.
How does an inclined plane reduce the amount of input force needed?
Because the force of gravity is no longer straight down on the object, it is at an angle. thus when you have a ramp some of the force due to gravity is dispersed in the x plane, causing the force down on the y plane (vertical) due to gravity ( mass x gravity) to be less thus decreasing the amount of force needed to lift.
An inclined plane reduces the effort by?
Lesser the height of inclined plane, and more the length of it, More will be the mechanical advantage of inclined plane i.e less effort would be applied.
An inclined plane is an example of what machine?
The inclined plane is a simple machine because it can be used to use less force.
How does making the slope of an inclined plane less steep affect the amount of force needed to move an object?
It requires less force to move an object up an inclined plane if the slope is less steep.
How does an incline plane works?
an inclined plane works because greater distance but less force.
What is the trade off when using and inclined plane?
More distance, less force
How does increasing the distance of an inclined plane effect the force needed to raise an object?
the less force is needed.
How does making slope of an inclined plane less steep affect the amount of force needed to move an object?
the less steep it is the less force you will need
What is the disadvantage of a force advantage in a machine?
For example: think of the inclined plane- The advantage of gaining force is offset by the disadvantage of losing distance. So, that means... The longer the inclined plane is, the less steep it has to be and the less force a load needs to have exerted on it to move. :) Hope that answers your question. :)
Does an inclined plane lift a heavy load by using more or less force over distance greater?
Less
How an inclined plane increases the force without changing the amount of work done?
because going up a ramp takes less force
Does the average speed depend on the steepness of the inclined plane?
Assuming you are asking about an object that is placed on an inclined plane and the only forces acting on it are gravity and friction; as the slope of the plane increases, more of gravitational force is applied down the plane and less of the frictional force is applied to the object up the plane. Unless there is no frictional force, until the plane reaches a certain critical slope the gravitational force will not overcome the frictional force and the object will not move, and the average speed for the object will be zero regardless of the slope of the plane (below this critical slope). As the slope increases there is an increase in the net force on the object down the plane which results in a higher acceleration down the plane, and with a higher acceleration it will reach a higher speed and so the average speed of the object down the plane will be higher. So, yes, it can be said that the average speed of an object down an inclined plane is dependant on the slope of the plane. If there are other forces involved, for example a motor, then the average speed will depend on these forces as well as the slope.
