To calculate the ideal mechanical advantage for an inclined plane, divide th length of the incline by the height of the incline. 
Therefore; IMA = L/h
L= 3.0 m, while h =1.0 m
 IMA = 3/1
         = 3
Therefore the IMA of the ramp is 3 
This means the ramp increases the force that is being exerted by 3 times.

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

t = 12s

Explanation:

Given:

v-initial = 0 m/s

x = 360 m

a = 5.0 m/s^2

Solve:

x = (v-initial)t + 1/2(a*t^2)

360 = 0t + 1/2 (5.0t^2)

360 = 2.5 t^2

144 = t^2

t = sqrt(144) = 12

Therefore, it takes 12 seconds.

alexdok [17]
4x + 4 < 4x + 3 (expand it)
4 < 3 (cancel 4x on both sides)
Since 4 < 3 is not true there is no solution.

Answer: NO SOLUTION.

Because you see yourself the opposite way in a mirror. So yes your “seeing” yourself but not how everyone else sees you.
