What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley? 0. 5 1. 0 1. 5 2. 0.

Sagot :

The mechanical advantage of the pulley is 1.

Mechanical advantage

The ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it.

The formula for mechanical advantage.

[tex]\rm M.A. = \dfrac{F_o}{F_i}[/tex]

Here,  [tex]\rm F_o[/tex] is output force and [tex]\rm F_i[/tex] input force.

Given

A pulley is given.

To find

The mechanical advantage of the pulley.

How to find a mechanical advantage?

We know by Newton's first law.

P = W

where P is applied force

and W is the weight of the object.

Then

[tex]\rm M.A. = \dfrac{F_o}{F_i}\\\\M.A. = \dfrac{P}{W}\\\\M.A. = \dfrac{P}{P}\\\\M.A. = 1[/tex]

The mechanical advantage of the pulley is 1.
