Answer:

height=2

Step-by-step explanation:

MA= input/output

MA= 5

input = 10 (the ramp)

output=x (the height)

5=10/x

x=2

1. If the ramp has a length of 10 and has a mechanical advantage (MA) of 5. Then we need to find the height of the ramp.
Formula:
MA = L / H
Since we already have the mechanical advantage and length, this time we need to find the height .
MA 5 = 10 / h
h = 10 / 5
h = 2 meters

Therefore, the ramp has a length of 10 meters, a height of 2 meters with a mechanical advantage of 5.
