44. A metal ramp 6.00 m long is tilted 10.0° and is used to load and unload a moving van. Suppose a 20.0 kg box is pushed up the ramp and it slides with a friction coefficient of 0.30. The ramp can be viewed as a "machine" where the useful output is the potential energy gain of the box and the input is the physical work done by the person doing the pushing. (a) Determine the efficiency of the ramp. (b) Determine the ratio of the force needed to lift the box without the ramp to the force needed to push it along the ramp (this is called the mechanical advantage).
