Question

A ramp with a length of 6 m and a height of 2 m. What is the Mechanical Advantage (MA)?"

A) 1
B) 2
C) 3
D) 0.33

Answer 1

The mechanical advantage (MA) of the ramp is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mechanical advantage (MA) of a ramp can be calculated by dividing the length of the ramp by its height. In this case, the length of the ramp is 6 m and the height is 2 m. So, the MA would be 6/2 = 3. Therefore, the correct option is C) 3.
