What is a lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one used to do?
Mechanical advantage refers to the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it. A lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one is used to increase distance.
What is the relationship between distance from the fulcrum and the mechanical advantage of a first class lever?
The mechanical advantage of a First Class lever is Distance of the effort from the fulcrum/Distance of the load from the fulcrum
What class or classes of lever always have a mechanical advantage greater than 1?
A second class lever always has a mechanical advantage greater than 1.
Explain why pulleys are in the lever family?
They provide mechanical advantage.
What are the levers that operate at a mechanical advantage?
Every lever has a mechanical advantage. It may be less than ' 1 ' ... the outputforce may be less than the input force ... but it can always be calculated.The 'ideal' mechanical advantage ... that is, in the absence of losses ... isClass I lever . . . . . any number, depending on dimensions of the structureClass II lever. . . . . more than 1Class III lever.. . . . less than 1
What is the Mechanical Advantage of levers?
The mechanical advantage of the lever is that smaller persons can move heavier objects. The lever can be placed under the object and the person can then push down on the lever.
What is the mechanical advantage of a lever?
The mechanical advantage is when the fulcrum is closer to the effort and creates a advantage
What is the chemical advantage of lever?
nothing
How do you increase the mechanical advantage of a lever?
The mechanical advantage of a lever can be increased by moving the fulcrum towards the load and away from the power end.
Which type of lever always increases mechanical advantage?
second class lever
What is a mechanism of a lever?
The mechanical advantage is when the fulcrum is closer to the effort and creates a advantage
What is an example of a mechanical advantage?
Crowbar (lever) .
A lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one is used to do what?
A lever with a mechanical advantage greater than one is used to increase distance. A lever is a simple machine connected to ground by a hinge called a fulcrum.
What is the formula for finding weight at simple lever?
a lever has a mechanical advantage of 5 . how heavy an object can the lever move if a person exerts 100N force on the lever?
What is the IMA of lever?
the IMA is the ideal mechanical advantage.
How do you get mechanical advantage?
by using a pulley, lever or gear
How do you calculate a lever's mechanical advantage?
From the design of the lever (on paper), the mechanical advantage is effort arm/load arm which means Distance from pivot to the applied force/distance from pivot to the load The result of that is that the forces will have the reciprocal ratio, and the input force to the lever will be the output force/the Mechanical Advantage .
