(2) Time for tractor to pull materials from the bottom of slope to the top of slope: t = s/υ =15m/1m/s =15s?
(3) Slope height: h = sina30× s =1/2×15m = 7.5m.
Useful work done by pulling the material to the top of the slope: wh as = GH =× 7.5m =/kloc-0 /×105n× 7.5m = 7.5x105j.
Total work done by tractor on materials: w = Pt = 6×104 w×15s = 9×105j.
Mechanical efficiency: η = w/w = 7.5×105j/9×105j = 83.3%.
