Inclined planes reduce the amount of effort needed to move an object, but increases the length of the ramp.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Mechanical advantage is the measure of amount of effort needed to move an object. The mechanical advantage can be calculated as the ratio of length of ramp to the height of ramp for an inclined plane.
As it is known that an object can be easily moved on an inclined plane than on a vertical plane, this is because, the inclined plane provides greater output force. But in that case, the effort required will be reduced with the cost of increasing the distance of the movement of object.
In other terms , the ramp's length of inclined planes has to get increased in order to reduce the amount of effort needed to move an object. This is because as the mechanical advantage has length of the ramp in the numerator, with the increase in numerator value or length value the mechanical advantage will also increase.

Greenhouse gases released from the burning of fossil fuels are responsible for global warming.
<h3>What is the atmosphere?</h3>
The atmosphere is the region of region of the planet above its surface area where gases envelop the planet.
Based on the effect of greenhouse gases on global warming;
- Planet A has a higher surface temperature due to the higher amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
- Methane is the main constituent of natural gas. Humans increase the contribute to increase in methane gas by raising cattle,
- Pollutants come from both natural sources and human activities.
- Sulfur Dioxide is produced by the combustion of fuels in automobiles. Once in the atmosphere, it combine with water to form acid precipitation.
- Nitrogen and oxygen do not contribute to the greenhouse effect because they are made up of 2 atom molecules that are bound tightly so they CANNOT vibrate to absorb energy.
- Greenhouse gases contribute to global warming by absorbing infrared energy that reflects off Earth's surface and reemitting the energy in all directions. This keeps the infrared energy close to the Earth's surface.
- Most of the greenhouse gases produced come from burning fossil fuels in factories, ships, cars, trains.
Therefore, pollutants such as greenhouse gases are responsible for global warming.
