A metal ramp 6.00 m long is tilted 10.0° and is used to load and unload a moving van. Suppose a 20.0 kg box is pushed up the ramp and it slides with a friction coefficient of 0.30. The ramp can be viewed as a “machine” where the useful output is the potential energy gain of the box and the input is the physical work done by the person doing the pushing. (a) Determine the efficiency of the ramp. (b) Determine the ratio of the force needed to lift the box without the ramp to the force needed to push it along the ramp (this is called the mechanical advantage).arrow_forwardA thin prism of 5° angle gives a deviation of 3.2°.

- = The figure is shown TO SCALE. Each block represents a 1.00 cm square. It shows a ray of light entering a rectangular piece of glass (n₂ 1.50) from air (n₁ = 1.00). Find the position (x,y in cm) where the ray exits the glass. Or, if it does not exit the glass, find the (x,y) position of the second point (the second reflection) where total internal reflection occurs. In either case, be sure to check if total internal reflection occurs.
