Yes


What is the unit for IMA?

IMA and AMA are unitless


What is the difference between ima and ama?

Ima is Ideal Mechanical Advantage and Ama is Actual Mechanical Advantage. The difference is that IMA doesn't take into account elasticity or friction and AMA does.


What is IMA and AMA?

IMA- Ideal mechanical advantageAMA- Actual mechanical advantage


What is the formula for lever?

(AMA / IMA)100 Where AMA represents the actual mechanical advantage and IMA represents the Ideal Mechanical advantage. AMA = Fr/Fe where Fr equals the force of the resistance from the fulcrum, and Fe equals the force of the effort. IMA = De/Dr where De equals the Distance of the effort from the fulcrum and Dr equals the distance of the resistance from the fulcrum

IMA divided by Length


How does the length of a screw affect its IMA?

Ideal Mechanical Advantage can be found using this formula IMA = DE / DR . Ideal Mechanical Advantage is a theoretical calculation, AMA,Êactual mechanical advantage is calculated with this formula, AMA = R / Eactual .

If a machine was 100 percent efficient how would the AMA compare to the IMA?

At perfect 100% efficiency, the Actual Mechanical Advantage should equal the Ideal Mechanical Advantage.


What does it mean when the IMA is less than 1.0?

If an IMA (ideal mechanical advantage) is less than one, that means the lever the force is applied to is shorter than the lever lifting the load.


In physics what is power and efficiency?

Power(P) is the amount of Work(W) done in a given amount of time(t). Efficiency(e) is a measure of how effective a machine is. This is done by taking the ratio of output work(Wo) and dividing that by the work input(Wi). e=Wo/Wi X 100 Another way of determining efficiency is... e=AMA/IMA X 100 (AMA=Actual Mechanical Advantage) (IMA=Ideal Mechanical Advantage)
