Harold uses an inclined plane to move a washing machine from the sidewalk into his house. The vertical
distance from the sidewalk to the house is 0.8 meters. If the plane has a mechanical advantage of 2.3, how
long is the plane? (1 point)
O 1.84 m
O 1.5 m
O 3.1 m
O 0.35 m

The length of the plane which equals the distance moved by the load is 0.35 m.

What is mechanical advantage?

Mechanical advantage is a measure of how much a force is increased by using a tool or machine.

It is equal to the force exerted by the tool or machine (load) divided by the applied effort.

M.A = load/Effort

M.A = distance over which effort is applied / distance over which the load moves

The length of the plane = distance moved by the load

distance moved by the load = distance over which effort is applied / M.A

distance over which effort is applied = (0.8 m) / (2.3)

distance over which effort is applied = 0.35 m
