Question

If the IMA of a machine is 2 and the effort force is 50 newtons, then the force applied to the resistance is ___________ N

Answer 1

100N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Required

Effort force = 50N Force applied to a resistance = ??

Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) = 2

Solution

Force applied to a resistance = Effort force x Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA)

= 50N x 2

= 100N
