Working with Inclined Planes
Doing Work with Simple Machines
Inclined planes make difficult moving jobs much easier. They are used to move objects from a lower place to a higher place or vice versa without having to lift that object vertically. We can slide the object up or down the inclined plane to use less force. Inclined planes are all around us and have been used for thousands of years. Readers will learn about the parts of an inclined plane, why they're beneficial, and where they can be found in our everyday lives.
