Answer:

the answer is 2m

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula to find the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is

MA (mechanical advantage) = L (length of plane) / H (height)


MA = (L)/(H)

for this problem we already know the MA and length. simply plug that into the formula and isolate H.... you'll end up finding the height >> 2m
