Question

40 POINTS suppose you already know how many ants it takes to lift an object straight up (using the 10-cm stick). How can you predict the number of ants that will be needed to lift the object with an inclined plane of a certain length?

Answer 1

The work used to lift an item equals the
force needed times the distance moved.
You can estimate work by multiplying the
number of ants times the stick length.

Answer 2

The work used to lift an item equals the force needed times the distance moved. You can estimate work by multiplying the number of ants times the stick length.
