Question

incline plane is given length 12m,load 600 newton,effort 200 Newton, Height 3 metre find its velocity ratio and mechanical advantage​

Answer 1

Answer:

i. The velocity ratio of the plane is 4.

ii. The mechanical advantage of the plane is 3.

Explanation:

i. The velocity ratio (VR) of an inclined plane is ratio of its length to the height. It is given as;

VR = $\frac{length of the plane}{height}$ = $\frac{l}{h}$

Given: l = 12 m, L = 600 N, E = 200 N, h = 3 m.

So that,

VR = $\frac{12}{3}$

     = 4

The velocity ratio of the plane is 4.

ii. Mechanical advantage (MA) expresses the relationship between the load overcome to effort applied.

MA = $\frac{Load}{Effort}$ = $\frac{L}{E}$

      = $\frac{600}{200}$

      = 3

The mechanical advantage of the plane is 3.

Therefore, the velocity ratio of the inclined plane is 4, and its mechanical advantage is 3.
