1/5 = 0.2
The theoretical mechanical advantage is the length of the ramp divided by its height. 20/2=10.
It is simply a plane surface making an angle with the horizontal (ground).
a wheel barrow. the part that holds stuff would be the inclined plane, the wheel would be a wheel and axle, and the part you pick up off the ground to make it go would be a lever
It is important when a heavy load is above the ground level, let's say the fridge on the truck which can not just be thrown to the ground so you need an incline plane for safety
You help a buddy move, and he rents a moving truck. To load or unload the truck, you take the ramp out, attach it to the rear of the truck and let it slope to the ground. The ramp is an inclined plane.
The theoretical mechanical advantage is the length of the ramp divided by its height. 20/2=10.
The height of the Great Pyramid = 139 metres The slope of a ramp with a mechanical advantage of 4 = 4x139 = 556m
The height of the Great Pyramid = 139 metres The slope of a ramp with a mechanical advantage of 4 = 4x139 = 556m
The height of the great pyramid = 139 metres The slope of a ramp with a mechanical advantage of 4 = 4x139 = 556m
A lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one is used to increase distance. A lever is a simple machine connected to ground by a hinge called a fulcrum.

To identify a simple machine, determine how it develops its mechanical advantage.If the MA comes from the load traveling along the length of an inclined surface to reach a higher height, then the machine is an inclined plane. If the central axis of a helical shape is made to rotate, and because of that rotation a force applied by the helix causes a nut to move along the axial length, or causes the helix to advance through the nut, then the helix is a screw.So if an ant crawls along the thread of the anchor bolt of a streetlight the ant is using that "screw" as an inclined plane. If a giant grabbed the helical ramp of a parking garage, and turned it until it had forced its way into the ground, the giant would be using the garage's parking "ramp" as a screw.The type of machine is identified by how it is used and how it develops its mechanical advantage, not simply by its size or vernacular name.
If you are referring to a vehicle wheel the radius distance of the wheel ( from the center to the ground ) is like a lever and your units will be ft lbs or N ms.
An inclined plane is basically a slope. So just find somewhere in your city where the ground slopes.
87.3 N
Bigger is better no mater what situation. remember don't try this at home :)
The larger the size of the wheel the less power you will be able to put to the ground...unless you change the gear ratio of you ring and pinion
