It is easier to draw up a wooden block along an inclined plane than to haul it vertically, principally because
The friction is reduced
The mass becomes smaller
Only a part of the weight has to be overcome
‘g’ becomes smaller
It is easier to draw up a wooden block along an inclined plane than to haul it vertically, principally because
Opposing force in vertical pulling $= mg$
But opposing force on an inclined plane is $mg\, sin \theta$, which is less than $mg$.
