It increases the distance over which work is performed, while reducing the power required over the period of the work performed.

How would the input force needed to push a wheelchair up a ramp change if you increase the height of the ramp but not its lenght?

If you increase the height of the ramp but not its length, the force needed to push the wheelchair up the ramp will increase. This is because a higher ramp will require more work to overcome gravity and lift the chair to a greater height. As the height increases, the force required to push the wheelchair up the ramp will increase proportionally.


Which would increase mechanical advantage of a ramp?

Increasing the length of the ramp or decreasing the angle of incline would increase the mechanical advantage of a ramp. This would make it easier to move objects up the ramp by requiring less force.


What does increasing the slope of the ramp do to the IMA?

Increase the IMA


How would the input force needed to push a wheelchair up a ramp change if you increase the height of the ramp but not its length?

The input force would increase as the height of the ramp increased. It wouldn't matter the distance. Ask me another one.


What will happen to the effort force if the height of a ramp is increase?

Increasing the height of a ramp will make it harder to push an object up the ramp, which means the effort force required to move the object will also increase. This is because the higher ramp increases the angle of incline, causing more resistance to the force applied.


What will lengthening a ramp do to its ideal mechanical advantage?

Increase the advantage.


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.


Does increaseing the length of a ramp increases the efficiency of the ramp?

Increasing the length of a ramp may increase its efficiency by reducing the steepness of the incline, making it easier to move objects up or down the ramp. A longer ramp provides a gentler slope, requiring less force to overcome gravity.


When you increase the height of a ramp which increases the angle does the efficiency for kinetic energy increase of decrease?

When you increase the height of a ramp, the efficiency for kinetic energy decreases because you are doing work against gravity to lift the object higher. This means less of the initial potential energy is converted into kinetic energy compared to when the ramp is lower.


How do you increase the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane?

the formula for the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is the length divide by the height.


Did the height of the ramp increase the distance the car rolled?

if the ramp forms a very steep gradient, definately the car will roll for a longer distance. On the contrary, if the gradient formed by the ramp is gentle, then it will roll for a shorter distance


How can you decrease the effort force needed to push a weight to the top of the ramp?

Simply oil the ramp. Although you may not want to, because you will have to push up on an oily ramp, so you will slide down, and so will the crate. --An AP Physics Student Bored in Study Hall
