What is mechanical advantage?

Suresh kumwat said:   1 decade ago
Mechanical advantage is the ratio of the force lifting to the effort applied.

PUJA said:   1 decade ago
Efficiency = Mechanical advantage/Velocity ratio.

So for ideal machines efficiency=1.

How efficiency is equal to one?

Davies Geoffrey said:   10 years ago
Efficiency is one only when mechanical advantage equals velocity ratio.

Amit said:   10 years ago
Its a ideal machine. So its efficiency equal to 1 (100%).

What is the meaning of velocity ratio?

Keval said:   9 years ago
Mechanical advantage is similar to the law of the lever.

For an ideal m/c. MA = OUTPUT TORQUE/INPUT TORQUE = INPUT SPEED/OUTPUT SPEED.

For an ideal machine, we are considering that friction and wear of machine are negligible.

So MA is 1.
