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

i. The velocity ratio of the plane is 4.

ii. The mechanical advantage of the plane is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

VR =
`(length of the plane)/(height)` =
`(l)/(h)`

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

So that,

VR =
`(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 =
`(Load)/(Effort)` =
`(L)/(E)`

=
`(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.
