How do you work out the gradiant on a ramp?

Divide the height of the ramp by the length of the ramp (rise over run).

How do you find efficiency of a ramp?

To find the efficiency of a ramp, you would calculate the output work (weight lifted) divided by the input work (force applied). The formula for efficiency is (Output Work/Input Work) x 100%. A more efficient ramp would require less input work to lift a certain weight.


How does the inclined plane work?

It works like a ramp.


What is the efficiency of a ramp if the input work is 96 j and the output work is 24j?

The efficiency of the ramp is 25%. This is calculated by taking the ratio of output work to input work, which in this case is 24 J / 96 J = 0.25, or 25%.


Does an inclined plane make work harder?

No, it makes work easier at the expense of more work. Climbing stairs can be done faster than climbing a ramp, but climbing the ramp is easier, since it is less work over a longer time.


How much work in joules has been done when you reach the top of the ramp?

The work done is equal to the change in potential energy. If the ramp has a height of h meters, the work done is mgh Joules, where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height of the ramp.


Do you need metal copeing on a mini ramp?

yes u need a metal coping for a mini ramp then it wouldn't work....good luck.


True or false Rolling a cart up a ramp is an example of doing negative work?

False. ApEx C;


Is it true that rolling a cart up a ramp is an example of doing negative work?

No, rolling a cart up a ramp is an example of doing positive work, as energy is being transferred to the cart to lift it against gravity. Negative work would be done if the cart were rolling down the ramp, as energy would be lost against gravity.


How does 1 inch per foot work when building a ramp?

That means the ramp rises 1 inch for every foot traveled. So, if you have a ramp that is 8 feet long it will have 8 inches of rise. If you have 12 inches of rise, then your ramp has to be 12 feet long.


What is more work pushing the box along the ramp or lifting it up?

It takes more work to lift the box because lifting against gravity requires more force than pushing along a ramp.
