How do you calculate the mechanical advantage of a wedge?
It is the length of the sloped side of the wedge divided by its width.
How do you find the area of a triangular wedge?
The surface area of a rectangular prism is the sum of the length times the width of its three pairs of faces. A triangular wedge is half of that.
Is a wedge like an inclined plane?
Yes a wedge is an incline plane.
Is a doorstop a wedge?
yes, because a doorstop wedges the door. So it would be a wedge.
How do you draw a net for a wedge?
To draw a net for a wedge, start by visualizing the wedge as a triangular prism. Begin with a rectangle representing the base of the wedge, and then add two congruent right triangles on each end of the rectangle to represent the slanted sides. Finally, ensure that the triangles are oriented correctly to form the wedge shape when the net is folded. This will create a flat layout that can be folded into the 3D form of the wedge.
