Yes a wedge is an incline plane.


Which has the greater mechanical advantage a wedge that is 6cm long and 3cm wide or a wedge that is 12cm long and 4cm wide explain?

To determine the mechanical advantage of a wedge, you can use the formula: Mechanical Advantage (MA) = Length of the wedge / Width of the wedge. For the first wedge (6cm long, 3cm wide), MA = 6/3 = 2. For the second wedge (12cm long, 4cm wide), MA = 12/4 = 3. Therefore, the second wedge has a greater mechanical advantage of 3 compared to the first wedge's mechanical advantage of 2.

To determine mechanical advantage (MA) of a wedge, we use the formula MA = length of the wedge / width of the wedge. For the first wedge, MA = 6 cm / 3 cm = 2. For the second wedge, MA = 12 cm / 4 cm = 3. Therefore, the second wedge (12 cm long and 4 cm wide) has a greater mechanical advantage of 3 compared to the first wedge's MA of 2.


What are some examples of a wedge?

Examples of a wedge would include items like an axe and a chisel. There are several types of chisels, like the cold chisel and flooring chisel. Other examples are knitting needles, a carpenter's plane, and parts of a boat are complex machines, but they are wedges, like the bow.An example of a wedge is a piece of metal or wood that is placed at the base of an open door to keep it from closing.
