Ratio of the length of the plank to the vertical height of the load raised
The steeper the inclined plane the greater will be the effort required to push up the load
The ratio of the inclined plane's steepness to the vertical height of the load

What is an inclined plane?
A plane where two sloping surfaces taper to form a sharp edge
A rigid, sloping surface over which heavy loads can be raised or lowered
A circular disc that can rotate freely about a fixed point
A rigid bar that can rotate freely about a point
The amount of push required on an inclined plane depends on which of the following?
Weight of the load
Steepness of the slope
Size of the load
Length of the slope
The effort required to push up the load will be more if...
The inclined plane is longer
Inclined plane is shorter
Inclined plane is steeper
Inclined plane is wider
An inclined plane acts like a force multiplier which means :
It takes more force to lift heavy loads
It depends on the weight of the load
It helps lift heavy loads with less effort
All of the above
