Question

200 N of force is applied to the pedals of a bike has output force of 450 N what is the mechanical advantage of the bike

Answer 1

2.25 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for mechanical advantage is:

`Mechanical \ Advantage = (F_o)/(F_i)`

`F_o` stands for output force and
`F_i` stands for input force.

We can plug in the given forces into the equation:

`Mechanical \ Advantage = (450\ N)/(200\ N)=2.25 \ N`
