Mechanical advantage is the greater outputted force than inputted force that is generated by using a machine. One example is pulling a pulley to create a much greater output force on the other side that a person could not lift without a pulley.
d input ______ d output
The input force is how much force you use to pull on it. The output is what is lifted.
ME=work output/ work input x 100%ME=42/50(100)ME=84
its like a input or output

A pulley system that has multiple pulleys in line with each one having its output drive the next will increase the force. This would be called a tackle pulley.
d input ______ d output
The input force is how much force you use to pull on it. The output is what is lifted.
The mechanical advantage of a pulley can be greater than 1.The efficiency cannot but that is a different matter.
ME=work output/ work input x 100%ME=42/50(100)ME=84
its like a input or output
A pulley system may cause the direction of the output force to differ from that of the input force, but is not guaranteed to do so. In a simple example, a double pulley could easily result in input and output forces in parallel.
If the pulley is frictionless the angle does not matter, the tension in the rope will be the same on both sides of the pulley. If there is friction in the pulley however then you want to reduce the friction as much as possible. You do that by creating as large an angle between the two ropes as possible.
False, Unless it is a twisted pulley system.
