Answer:

Calculate the ideal Mechanical Advantage of a Lever in which Effort Arm is 60 cm and Load Arm is 4 cm .

Answer :-

Mechanical Advantage is 15 .

Explanation :-

As per the provided information in the given question, we have been given that the Effort Arm of liver is 60 cm . Load Arm is given 4 cm . And, we have asked to calculate the Mechanical Advantage .

For calculating the Mechanical Advantage , we will use the Formula :-

\begin{gathered} \bigstar \: \: \boxed{ \sf { \: Mechanical \: Advantage \: = \: \dfrac{Effort \: Arm}{Load \: Arm} \: }} \\ \end{gathered}

MechanicalAdvantage=

LoadArm

EffortArm

Therefore , by Substituting the given values in the above Formula :-

\begin{gathered} \dag \: \: \sf { \: Mechanical \: Advantage \: = \: \dfrac{Effort}{Load} \: } \\ \end{gathered}

†MechanicalAdvantage=

Load

Effort

\begin{gathered} \longmapsto \: \: \sf{Mechanical \: Advantage \: = \: \dfrac{ \: 60 \: }{4} } \\ \end{gathered}

⟼MechanicalAdvantage=

4

60

\longmapsto \: \: \textbf {\textsf {Mechanical \: Advantage \: = \: 15 }}⟼Mechanical Advantage = 15

For calculating the Mechanical Advantage , we will use the Formula :-


\bigstar \: \: \boxed{ \sf { \: Mechanical \: Advantage \: = \: (Effort \: Arm)/(Load \: Arm) \: }} \\

Therefore , by Substituting the given values in the above Formula :-
