It's present tense but this word is rarely, if ever, used in present day English.
An inclined plane would make it easier to move something vertically: instead of pushing something straight up, you're pushing it to the side. This doesn't require as strong of a force (a push or a pull), so it's easier to do.
It's not often that someone actaully asks a really interesting question wikianswers.A TV show back in the very early 90s called "Eureka" which was designed for highschool students went into some good detail about the incline plane and the leaver.Very briefly, there are two devices which are the mother and father of all machinery in the world. These are:Incline planeThe LeaverAll machinery that exists today can be traced back to the basic use of the incline plane and the leaver. It is argued that there are 6 simple machines: Leaver, Inclined Plane, Wheel & Axis, Pully, Wedge and the Screw, but 4 out of these 6 are actually derived from the leaver and inclined plane:wheel & Pulley: Based on a leaver system, leavering a 360 angel.Screw & wedge: Both incline planes.Generally speaking, the most basic description, for the most basic use of an incline plane is:An incline plane allows you to more affectively use the energy required to raise or lower an object.Unfortunately, overall, an Incline Plane is not very simple in it's every day use, because of the fact that so many devices are derived from it. Some of the objects used in every day use that are based on an incline plane are:Ramps: used to help reduce the amount of energy exerted in one go when moving an object to a higher point.Funnel: a curved incline plane used to help move a large amount of material through a small gap.Knife Blades, Saws and Chisels: Inclined planes used to help reduce the direct force required to split an object open/cut an object open.Drills and Screws: Incline planes wrapped around a central spire to cut through material at an angel to reduce the direct force that would be required if cutting straight up and down.
