Which of the following is not a form of an inclined plane?

wedge
screw
piece of paper cut into a triangle
ramp

piece of paper cut into a triangle  

Explanation:

A plane surface lifted at an angle to horizontal from one edge is said to be an inclined plane. A wedge, a ramp or a screw are examples of a forms of inclined plane. A screw is like a inclined plane wound on a cylinder. These are simple machines. On the other hand, a piece of paper cut into a triangle is not an inclined plane as it does rise at an angle from horizontal. It is not a machine.

the answer is false. this is because for ice to melt, it requires latent heat of melting. latent heat means heat energy required to change phase without any increase in temperatures. therefore, the ice will take energy from the environment to melt hence atmospheric temperatures will reduce.
