It would be the first one because it is not as steep and as you are climbing it, you have more power than if you were climbing the second one.

Answer:

Ramp A

Explanation:

the mechanical advantage of a ramp is given by

[tex]MA=\frac{L}{h}[/tex]

where L is the length of the ramp and h is its height.


The Mechanical advantage of ramp A is: [tex]MA=\frac{6 m}{2 m}=3[/tex]

The Mechanical advantage of ramp B is: [tex]MA= \frac{3 m}{2 m}=1.5[/tex]

So, ramp A has a greater mechanical advantage.
