An inclined plane makes work easier because it allows for a longer distance over which a force can be applied. By exerting a smaller force over a longer distance, the amount of work required is reduced. However, the force exerted remains the same, as the incline does not change the magnitude of the force needed.
( Assuming mass of object on incline plane is in kilograms (kg) ) . Force pulling down incline on object (kilogram force) = object mass * sin (incline angle) . Force of object acting on and normal to incline (kilogram force) = object mass * cos (incline angle) . Mechanical Advantage = 1 / ( sin ( incline angle ) )
The force is up the slope and parralel to it, the load is essentially raised vertically.
yes it is
The higher the incline plane, the greater the angle made between the plane and the horizontal. So the plane will be steeper.
An incline plane is a wedge or ramp. When you look at a chisel you'll notice it is wedge shaped at the tip so it can cut. A knife is also an incline plane.
Yes the longer the incline plane the easier you finish the work

Yes, it makes it easier to push the object up.
an inclined plane works because greater distance but less force.
by increasing distance over which the force is applied
Ima of an incline plane?
Yes. It is easier to push an object up a plane than lift it straight up. It does not reduce the total amount of energy needed to lift it up.
Because the force of gravity is no longer straight down on the object, it is at an angle. thus when you have a ramp some of the force due to gravity is dispersed in the x plane, causing the force down on the y plane (vertical) due to gravity ( mass x gravity) to be less thus decreasing the amount of force needed to lift.
The force is up the slope and parralel to it, the load is essentially raised vertically.

Following the mother lode will require an incline plane.
Yes because it's a twisted incline plane.
