Answer:

The amount of effort needed to move the box is 187.5 N

Explanation:

weight of the box = load moved by the ramp, L = 750 N

mechanical advantage of the ramp, MA = 4

effort needed to move the box, E = ?

Mechanical advantage is given as = Load / Effort

Effort = Load / Mechanical advantage

Effort = 750 / 4

Effort = 187.5 N

Therefore, the amount of effort needed to move the box on to the truck using a ramp is 187.5 N

Answer:

V=15.3 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:

U_e+K_i+U_{gi}+W_{friction}=K_f+U_{gf}

the elastic potencial energy is given by:

U_e=\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2\\U_e=\frac{1}{2}*1100N/m*(4m)^2\\U_e=8800J

The work is defined as:

W_{friction}=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_{friction}=40N*2.5m*cos(180)\\W_{friction}=-100J

this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.

The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:

U_{gf}=m*g*h\\U_{gf}=60kg*9.8*2.5\\U_{gf}=1470J

the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.

8800J+0+0+-100J=\frac{1}{2}*62kg*v^2+1470J\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2(8800J-100J-1470J)}{62kg}}\\v=15.3m/s
