Calculating work on inclined plane?
Formula of work is always { Work= Force x Distance} so you find the force applied and the distance moved then multiply
What is ideal mehcanical advantage of a ramp if its length is 4.0m and itsd higher end is 0.5m above its lower end?
The mechanical advantage is equal to (distance of force applied)/(distance moved). The length of the ramp (I assume that means hypotenuse) is 4.0m, which is the distance over which the force is applied. The distance it is actually moved is the 0.5m up that it is being lifted. So MA = 4.0 / 0.5 = 8.
How much work would you do if you applied a 200 Newtons to an object and moved it 0 meters?
If an object does not move, no work is performed. Work is performed by a force acting through a distance.
When a 5 pound weight is lifted 10 feet of work is done.?
Work is calculated as the product of force and distance. In this case, a 5-pound weight lifted 10 feet means that the work done is 5 pounds multiplied by 10 feet, which equals 50 foot-pounds of work. This illustrates the basic principle that lifting a weight requires energy, quantified as work, and is dependent on both the weight's force and the distance it is moved.
How can you determine if an object has moved?
Judge by the distance it has moved in relation to another object.
