Solution

The correct option is B False
An inclined plane is simply a slope on which heavy loads can be pushed up to a certain height. Using inclined planes to load heavy materials like vehicle into a truck is much easier than lifting them and putting into the truck. The work gets done with much lesser force but the distance covered increases.
