I agree that the answer is sinθ.

But how? Please explain in detail.

sinθ is right answer. I agree.

Velocity ratio = l/h, so its 1/sinθ -> cosecθ.

I think its cosecθ.

Kedar said:   9 years ago
I think tanθ is correct.

Inclined plane/upwards weight sinθ.

Horizontal= cosθ.
Vertical = sinθ.

Velocity ratio (Vr) = displacement by effort / displacement by force.

While pulling a block on an inclined plane, there is a vertical effort made by man to pull it through the pulley (which is a vertical plane, opposite to angle) By this force the block moves some displacement (which is on an inclined plane).

Suppose distance moved by a load on an inclined plane is x meter. So, the distance moved by effort is x sin θ. Now velocity ratio is equal to x sin θ upon x so hear sin θ is the right answer.
