Given the machine is ideal means efficiency is 100%.

Therefore, MA = VR.
100 = Y/X.

Y = Distance Moved By Effort.
X = Distance move By load.

Therefore 100 = 2/x.
X = 2/100.
= 0.02.

Efficiency is 1.

Ma=VR=100.
Y/X=100,
Y=200.

First of all, for an ideal machine.

MA = VR = Y/X = 100.
Therefore, Y = 100 * 2 = 200.

MA =distance covered by effort /distance covered by load .

So 100 = distance covered by effort /2.

Mechanical advantage = output/input.
100 = 2/input (effort to move).
= .02 answer.

As we know that,

MAF = FL/FE.
= 2/100.
= 0.02m.

Jadecliff said:   1 decade ago
MAF = FL/FE.

where,

MAF is the force mechanical advantage.
FL is the load force.
FE is the effort force.
