How does using a ramp make work easier when loading a piano onto a truck three feet above the ground? It allows a larger force to be applied over a shorter distance.
It allows a larger force to be applied over a longer distance.
It allows a smaller force to be applied over a shorter distance.
It allows a smaller force to be applied over a longer distance.

It allows a smaller force to be applied over a longer distance.

Explanation:

A ramp is an example of an inclined plane that makes the movement of object   easier above the ground level or higher surfaces.

In the given example, the sloping part of the ramp will support the weight of the piano as it moves up the slope and it will allow less force to be applied to move the piano above but the distance would be longer as the slant length or slope is the longest distance.

Hence, the correct answer is "d".

answer:   you might love summer weather, but you don’t want it to feel like the sun is inside your car. but a hot car that just won’t seem to cool down might be a bigger of a problem than you think. your car relies on being at the right temperature.

explanation:

air exerts forces on falling objects near earth’s surface.

explanation:

the term 'free falls' refer to object that are falling towards the earth, in a situation in which gravity is the only force acting on the object.

for an object in free fall, the acceleration is constant (g, the gravitational acceleration), and so the velocity of the object constantly increases.

for objects near earth's surface, there is always another force acting on the object: the resistance due to the air. this force is opposed to the direction of fall of the object, and it is proportional to the velocity of the object, so as the object falls down, this force increases up to a point when it balances the force of gravity, and the object continues its motion at constant velocity (called terminal velocity). since in this case gravity is not the only force acting on the object, we are not in a situation of free fall.
