Solution

The answer is b. MA=1.33 and VR=5/3.

Step 1: The mechanical advantage (MA) of an inclined plane is the ratio of the length of the slope (L) to the height of the slope (h). In this case, the angle of the slope is 37 degrees, so L/h = 1/cos(37) = 1.33.

Step 2: The velocity ratio (VR) of an inclined plane is also the ratio of the length of the slope to the height of the slope. So, VR = L/h = 1.33.

Step 3: The efficiency of the machine is 80%, but this does not affect the MA or the VR. The efficiency would affect the actual mechanical advantage (AMA), not the ideal mechanical advantage (MA) or the velocity ratio (VR).

Therefore, the MA and VR of the inclined plane are both approximately 1.33.

m The object of mass m = 3 kg is at the bottom of the incline, which is at the angle e = 55° with respect to horizontal. The object has initial speed of vo = 5 m/s and begins slide up the incline. There is a friction between the object and the incline. The coefficient of kinetic friction is uk = 0.25. The object moves up the incline and eventually stops under the influence of friction and its own weight. Find: (a) how high up the incline (in m, relative to its original position) the object slides before stopping (careful here - your answer is the height, i.e. the vertical distance between object's final position and the ground); (b) work in J) done by the kinetic friction when the object moves up the incline (careful with the sign); (c) work in J) done by the normal force when the object moves up the incline; (d) work in J) done by the gravity when the object moves up the incline (careful with the sign); (e) when the object reaches the highest point on the incline it begins to slide back down, find object's speed (in m/s) at the bottom of the incline.
