Question

A machine displaces a load of 155 kgf when an effort of 15.5 kgf acts on it . Calculate its mechanical advantage .
And with Explanation!!

Answer 1

Answer:

• 10 is the required mechanical advantage of machine.

Explanation:

Acoording to the Question

It is given that,

• Machine displaces a load of 155 kgf
• Efforts acting on it = 15.5 kgf

we have to calculate the its mechanical advantage .

As we know that Mechanical Advantage of any body is calculated by the Loads divided by efforts.

• Mechanical Advantage = Load/Effort

by putting the value we get

↠ Mechanical Advantage = 155/15.5

↠ Mechanical Advantage = 1550/155

↠ Mechanical Advantage = 10

• Hence, its mechanical advantage is 10 .

Answer 2

Explanation:

given :

• machine load = 155 kgf

• effort = 15.5 kgf

to find :

• Calculate its mechanical advantage

knowledge required :

• the formula is = M.A = L/F

• in this question we have to calculate

• mechanical advantage

• then, we have calculated then the

• answer comes

solution :

• M.A = L/E

• M.A = 155/15.5

• M.A = 1550/155

• so we will divide with 1550/155

• M.A = 10

hence, the answer is 10
