Sentence
Simple Machine

Answer 1

Workdone = 15 Nm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Length of ramp (distance) = 3 m

Force = 5 N

To find the work done on the piano;

Mathematically, work done is given by the formula;

Workdone = force * distance

Substituting into the formula, we have;

Workdone = 5 * 3

Workdone = 15 Nm

II. The name of the simple machine for "ramp” is an inclined plane.

Typically, an inclined plane has a flat supporting surface that is set at an angle with an end higher than the other and it can be used to lift or lower an object.
