An inclined plane of length 6 cm is used...

An inclined plane of length 6 cm is used to lift a load of 42 N, by applying an effort of 7 N. Find the height of the plane.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Given, length of the plane, l = 6 m
Load, L = 42 N
effort, E = 7 N
Let height of the plane = h
We know, `(L)/(E) = (l)/(h)`
`implies h = l xx (E)/(L) = 6 xx (7)/(42) = 1m `
