How does an inclined plane affect the effort needed to move a load vertically?
1 answer:
If we pull an object vertically upwards then we need to apply a force which is equal in the magnitude of the weight of the object
now when we pull the same object upwards along an inclined plane with angle then we require a force which will balance the component of weight along the inclined
so it is given as
so as if we compare the two forces we can say that since the value of sine is always less than 1 for an angle less than 90 degree
so in the 2nd case when we pull the object along the inclined plane it will require less effort
so correct answer is
<em>A. reduce effort</em>

Explanation:
It is given that,
Mass of the brick, m = 1.15 kg
Radius of the circle, r = 1.44 m
The cable will break if the tension exceeds 43.0 N
Let v is the maximum sped can have at the bottom of the circle before the cable will break. At the bottom of the circle, the net force is equal to the centripetal force along with the weight of the brick. So,
v = 6.30 m/s
So, the maximum speed of the brick at the bottom of the circle before the cable will break is 6.3 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
