If a ramp measures 6 feet in length and 3 feet in height, an object weighing 200 pounds requires how much effort to move using the ramp?

  1. 200 pounds
  2. 100 pounds
  3. 50 pounds
  4. 300 pounds

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The formula to determine mechanical advantage of an incline plane is Length of Ramp ÷ Height of Ramp = Weight of Object ÷ Effort.

6/3 = 200/E
6E = 600
E = 100
