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.

Which measurement is a potential difference?<br> A.115J<br> B.115V<br> C.115N<br> D.115C
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Potential difference has a SI Unit of Volt and its symbol is <em>V</em>. Hence answer is <u>B</u>.

A is wrong as it has the unit Joule <em>(J)</em> which is the SI unit for energy.

C is wrong as it has the unit Newton <em>(N)</em> which is the SI unit for force.

D is wrong as it has the unit Coulomb <em>(C)</em> which is the SI unit of charge.

Dolphin echolocation is similar to ultrasound. Reflected sound waves
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.

Explanation:

To understand why high-frequency waves work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation, first we have to understand the relation between frequency and wavelength.

The relation between frequency and wavelength is given by

λ = c/f

Where λ is wavelength, c is the speed of light and f is the frequency.

Since the speed of light is constant, the wavelength and frequency are inversely related.

So that means high frequency waves have shorter wavelengths, which is the very reason for the successful echolocation because waves having shorter wavelength are more likely to reach and hit the target and then reflect back to the dolphin to form an image of the object.

Thus, waves with high frequencies have shorter wavelengths that work better  than low frequency waves for successful echolocation.
