    An inclined plane or a ramp is an sloped surface; for example a roadway to bridge a height difference. The inclined plane is used to reduce the force necessary to overcome the force of gravity when elevating or lowering a heavy object. The ramp makes it easier to move a physical body vertically by extending the distance traveled horizontally (run) to achieve the desired elevation change (rise).
