How do you find mechanical advantage of a wedge?
The mechanical advantage (MA) of a wedge can be calculated using the formula: MA = (\frac{\text{length of the wedge}}{\text{thickness of the wedge}}). This ratio indicates how much the wedge amplifies the input force applied to it. By comparing the input distance (the length of the wedge) to the output distance (the thickness), you can determine how effectively the wedge converts force. A larger MA means the wedge is more efficient at splitting or lifting materials.
