[SOLVED] Machines Problem
A ramp, 18m long and 4.5m high is set up in order to wheel a 25-kg box at a constant speed. Assume that by wheeling it there is no friction.
IMA= [tex]\frac{d_{in}}{d_{out}}[/tex]
I know this is a pretty simple problem but I don't know how to tell which distance is "in"and which is "out".
Please help, I can't find any sample problems in my book and we never got any practice in class...and I have a test tomorrow! :( Thank you.
