If an inclined plane of length 2 m is used to lift a load of 20 N to a height of 1 m, find the effort required to lift the load to that heiht using inclined plane.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
10 N
`MA=(l)/(h)=(2)/(1)=2`
`MA=(L)/(E)`
`E=(L)/(MA)=(20)/(2)=10` Effort =10 N
