V.R = (Distance moved by effort)/(Distance moved by lode).

Since effort is vertical so it will be P sinθ and load will be:

I = (p sinθ)^2+(p cos θ)^2

@Sourav Kundu.

You can be right but in this question angle is made b/w horizontal and inclination.

So cos(90°-x) = sin x.

So right answer is (A).

The plate is inclined to horizontal plane. Therefore the horizontal component of force will be Cosθ whereas the vertical component will become Sinθ.

distance moved by effort= hyp.sinθ
distance moved by load= hyp
V.R= distance moved by effort/distance moved by load
V.R= sinθ.

Velocity ratio=height of inclined plane/length of the inclined plane,
= h/l,
= sin(θ).

Opposite side= sinθ.
Base= cosθ.

Because opp.side/hypo=sinθ(hypo=1).
sin2θ+cos2θ=1.

Since, v = u+at,

v1= gsin (theta)t, u = 0, a = g cos(90-theta) = g sin(theta).

v2 = gt.

So, v2/v1 = sin(theta).

@Bibin S.

Velocity Ratio can be defined as the ratio of distance moved by effort to the distance moved by load.

If weight is resolved w sin θ acts parallel to plane.

Then,
P= w sinθ.
MA = W/P = 1/ sin θ = Cosecθ.

It is simply inclination with respect to X & Y axis. So angle made with Y axis is Sin θ.
