∙ 9y agoUsing a short inclined plane is generally easier than using a long not so steep inclined plane. A shorter inclined plane requires less force to move an object up the incline compared to a longer, less steep incline. The shorter distance also means less work is needed to overcome friction and gravity.
It is easier to move an object up a long ramp because the longer ramp allows for a shallower incline, which reduces the force required to lift the object vertically. This decreases the amount of work needed to overcome gravity compared to a shorter, steeper ramp.
It is not a simple machine. Simple machines are levers, inclined planes, wheel and axle, screws, wedge, and pulley. I water pump uses air pressure and suction.
Mountain roads are often built with zigzag patterns, known as switchbacks, to help vehicles navigate steep terrain more safely and efficiently. By implementing a series of sharp turns, the road's elevation gain can be spread out over a longer distance, reducing the overall gradient and making it easier for vehicles to climb or descend the mountain. This design also allows drivers to maintain better control and visibility while navigating challenging mountainous terrain.
The center of pressure is below the center of gravity for an inclined surface because the pressure distribution varies with depth and is dependent on the shape of the surface. As the surface inclines, the pressure distribution shifts, causing a resultant force that acts at a lower point compared to the center of gravity. This creates a moment about the center of gravity that helps stabilize the object.
A long lever will make it easier to lift something because it allows you to exert more force over a greater distance, reducing the amount of force needed. Short levers require more effort as they provide less mechanical advantage.
Long gently slope inclined plane
It is a simple machine which can be used to apply a relatively weaker force over a longer distance instead of a much greater force over a short, direct distance.
Plane
Yes, the word "plane" has a short e sound, pronounced as \plān.

No. The E is silent in plane, where the A has a long A sound, as in "plain."

A high slope refers to a steep incline, meaning the elevation increases quickly over a short horizontal distance. A low slope, on the other hand, indicates a gentle incline with a gradual increase in elevation over a longer horizontal distance.
No, no necessarily.
