How does the inclined plane do your works faster and easier?
The reason that inclined planes allow us to reduce the force necessary to move items is because the work required to do both (Work = Force x Distance) is the same. When pushing up an inclined plane, the pusher only has to counteract the component of gravity that wants to slide the object back down the plane, instead of fighting against the entire force of gravity. Using an inclined plane decreases the force necessary to accomplish the task but increases the distance required for force against the vertical component. (An angled plane shortens the distance of travel overall).
What is a kite string attached to?
Kite string comes on wooden dowels, about half an inch to an inch in diameter, with the string wrapped around the dowel. One end of the string is attached to the kite, while the other end is attached to the dowel that you hold while flying the kite. The dowel allows you to easily release more string to let the kite go higher, or to reel the kite back in to you.
How does an inclined plane change the way work is done?
An incline plane allows less effort (pushing force) to be used to move a weight to a higher level without lifting straight up. You have to push it a longer distance, so ideally, the same amount of work is done, but really, due to friction more work is done. Maybe you can't lift a 500 pound barrel, but you can roll it up an inclined plane into the back of a truck.
What is a back to back stem and leaf chart?
A back to back stem and leaf chart consists of two stem and leaf charts, usually measuring related variables. The two charts share the same stem; in one chart the leaves go from right, at the stem, to left while in the other chart the leaves go from left to right as "normal".
What are the 4 example of bodies performing simple harmonic motion?
Pendant in a clock Swing Suspended spring with mass attached An object moving back and forth between rubber buffers along an air track
What is a simple machine that consists of two inclined planes placed back-to-back?
A simple machine that consists of two inclined planes placed back-to-back is called a wedge. It is commonly used to split objects or hold things in place. Examples of wedges include knives, axes, and chisels.
How is a inclined plane and a wedge different?
A wedge is 2 inclined planes, back to back.
How is a wedge different from and inclined plane?
A wedge is 2 inclined planes, back to back.
How is a wedge different from a inclined plane?
A wedge is 2 inclined planes, back to back.
What are inclined planes placed back to back?
It is a wedge.
How does a wedge differ from a inclined plane?
A wedge has two inclined planes back-to-back that are not at a right angle
What are some examples of inclined planes in your house?
examples of inclined planes are your roof a lamp shade the beck of a t.v. a ramp and the back of your couch
What is the double inclined plane?
A double inclined plane is a simple machine that consists of two inclined planes placed back to back. It allows for the raising or lowering of objects with less force by providing a larger distance over which the force can be applied. The mechanical advantage of a double inclined plane depends on the angle of inclination of each plane.
A wedge is an example of which type of simple machine?
A wedge is an example of a simple machine that consists of two inclined planes joined back to back. It is commonly used to split objects apart or hold them in place by converting a force applied to it into a stronger force perpendicular to its inclined surfaces.
What kind of simple machine is a ramp?
inclined plainA ramp is an example of an inclined plane(:A ramp is an inclined planeincline planeA ramp belongs under the simple machine category of inclined planes. Inclined planes are sloping or slanting in figure which allows less effort to be exerted or applied, making work easier. The ramp has one end raised up to help raise an object, rather pushing a certain object than lifting it. Other examples of inclined planes other than the ramp are the stairs. When two inclined planes are put back to back, another simple machine called the wedge.
Can planes be perpendicular to each other?
no planes are not perpendicular to each other because for air resistance the planes are designed in a such way that air is avoided to back side and they are inclined to each other.
A chisel is an example of what kind of simple machine?
A chisel is an example of a wedge, which is a type of simple machine that consists of two inclined planes placed back to back. When force is applied to the chisel, it creates a splitting effect and can be used to cut or shape materials like wood or metal.
