A ramp with a mechanical advantage of 8 lifts objects to a height of 1.5 meters how long is the ramp

Given dа ta:

M. A. = 8 (No units),

Ramp height (h) = 1.5 m, lifted,

Determine how long is the ramp=?

General formula

Mechanical Advantage = (Ramp length) : (Ramp height),

M. A = l : h

8 * 1.5 = l = 12 m long

length of the ramp l ramp = 12 m
