Question

A load of 300N can be lifted by a force of 30N with a help of a lever. Find the mechanical advantage. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

$\text{We know}$

$\sf{Mechanical advantage} = \sf \frac{the\:effort\:required\:to\:overcome\:force}{the\:force\:of\:the\:object}$

So,

$\sf{Mechanical advantage} = \sf \frac{30}{300}$

$\sf{Mechanical advantage} = \sf \frac{1}{10}$

$\sf{Mechanical advantage} = \sf{0.1}$
