Ok I just thought it might take more force if there was a high coefficiend of friction on the ramp... Thanks

Yeah, on the test it was asking for a ratio of sorts like twice as much etc

Well I was thinking more in the lines of that the lifting doesn't matter so much as the sliding it up the ramp?

1. Basic Physics stuff nothing too complex... #1. A clerk lifts a box 1m vertically. He also slides the box to an equal height over a 2m ramp. How much more force does it take to lift the box vertically? 2. He stated that it would take something like twice as much(can't remember if...
