By using ramps you can easily push or pull the object up the ramp.

Answer:

Inclined Plane

Explanation:

An inclined plane, also known as a ramp, is a flat supporting surface tilted at an angle, with one end higher than the other, used as an aid for raising or lowering a load. The inclined plane is one of the six classical simple machines.

The basic principle of Inclined pane is as follows

W = F x D ( Force times Distance)

where W shows the word done.

The law of conservation of momentum tells us that momentum is conserved, therefore total initial momentum should be equal to total final momentum. In this case, we can expressed this mathematically as:

mA vA + mB vB = m v

where, m is the mass in kg, v is the velocity in m/s

since m is the total mass, m = mA + mB, we can write the equation as:

mA vA + mB vB = (mA + mB) v

furthermore, car B was at a stop signal therefore vB = 0, hence

mA vA + 0 = (mA + mB) v

1800 (vA) = (1800 + 1500) (7.1 m/s)

<h3>What is law of energy conservation?</h3>

The principle of energy conservation states that energy is neither created nor destroyed. It may change from one sort to another. Just like the mass conservation rule, the legitimacy of the preservation of energy depends on experimental perceptions; hence, it is an experimental law. The law of preservation of energy, too known as the primary law of thermodynamics
