inclined+plane


 * An inclined plane is a way of distributing weight though distance. **


 * In the picture below the person is pushing the large ball up the steep inclined plane. **
 * How could you find a way to have the person exert HALF the amount of EFFORT? **

**if you take the inclined plane below and increased the distance by 2X, you would then decrease the force applied by 1/2 the original effort force.**




 * Go to the following LINK for a good explanation of the relationship between FORCE and DISTANCE **
