Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is A. 32.5

Mechanical advantage is the ratio of force that is input into a machine to the force output.

Mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is calculated by dividing the radius of the wheel by that of the axle.

MA=R/r where R is the radius of the wheel and r is the radius of the axle.

Substituting for the values in the question gives:

MA=26cm/0.8cm

=32.5
