    The ideal mechanical advantage of an inclined plane or ramp is equal to the length of incline divided by height of the inclined plane. in equation

    MA = L / H

    since the ideal mechanical advantage of the given inclined plane is 2 and the length of inlcine is 3.8 m

    MA = L / H

    H = L / MA

    H = 3.8 / 2

    H = 1.9 m was paco above the ground
