Question

what do you understand by the term" mechanical advantage of a machine" ?

Answer 1

1. Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system.

2. The device preserves the input power and simply trades off forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force.

3.The model for this is the law of the lever.Machine components designed to manage forces and movement in this way are called mechanisms.

4. An ideal mechanism transmits power without adding to or subtracting from it. This means the ideal mechanism does not include a power source, is frictionless, and is constructed from rigid bodies that do not deflect or wear.

5. The performance of a real system relative to this ideal is expressed in terms of efficiency factors that take into account departures from the ideal.

Answer 2

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. The device trades off input forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force.
