What is the mechanical advantage of a machine without friction?
Machinal advantage, also known as mechanical advantage, refers to the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it. A machine can be useful even its machinal advantage is less than 1.
What the mechanical advantage of a long thin wedge with that of a short wide wedge?
The mechanical advantage of a long thin wedge is greater than that of a short wide wedge because it can exert a greater force over a longer distance, allowing it to penetrate materials more effectively. This results in a smaller input force required to achieve the same output work. In contrast, a short wide wedge may require more force to drive it into a material but may be more efficient in spreading or splitting objects due to its broader surface area. Overall, the choice between the two depends on the specific application and desired outcome.
Why is it easier to pull out a nail with a long-hammer than with a short-handled hammer?
the long handle provides a greater lever effect
How do you fix a short circuit in a pulley system?
Short circuits are typically associated with electrical circuits. Pulley systems are associated with mechanical cable and pulley lifting systems. The two are so different that the question does not make sense. Please restate the question.
What are the examples of advantages?
I'm not sure how this is related to science and technology, so I'm gonna give a general answer. Being tall when you need to reach something that's out of reach of short people is an advantage. Having a torch or a lighter when you're in dark area is an advantage. Having a cellphone/compass/map with you when you're alone in a forest is an advantage. Hope that helps :P
What levers has the largest mechanical advantage?
A lever with a long effort arm and a short load arm has the largest mechanical advantage. This type of lever allows a small input force to exert a greater output force over a shorter distance. An example of this is a crowbar or a wheelbarrow.
Would a short or long ramp have a greater mechanical advantage?
There is a mechanical advantage in using a long, gently sloping ramp than a short steep ramp. If you want to test this remember what goes up must come down and a long ramp gives you more time to react
Why does a long thin wedge have a greater mechanical advantage than a short wide wedge?
A long thin wedge has a greater mechanical advantage because it requires less force to push it under an object due to its increased length, which allows the force to be distributed over a larger area. This increases the chances of success in splitting the object apart compared to a short wide wedge that concentrates the force over a smaller area.
Can Mechanical Advantage be greater than Velocity Ratio for any machine?
Sure, take your forearm, for instance. It is a lever that trades force for speed because the insertion points for the muscles on the bone (effort) are closer to the fulcrum (elbow) than the resistance (your hand). Your muscle contracts a short distance but that is translated to a greater distance at the hand. A short effort arm and a longer resistance arm gives a lever with a MA < 1
What is the mechanical advantage of a machine without friction?
Machinal advantage, also known as mechanical advantage, refers to the ratio of the force produced by a machine to the force applied to it. A machine can be useful even its machinal advantage is less than 1.
Are short biceps stronger than long biceps?
Short biceps are generally stronger than long biceps due to their mechanical advantage in generating force.
What the mechanical advantage of a long thin wedge with that of a short wide wedge?
The mechanical advantage of a long thin wedge is greater than that of a short wide wedge because it can exert a greater force over a longer distance, allowing it to penetrate materials more effectively.

Do you need a short lever or long lever to lift something easier?
A long lever will make it easier to lift something because it allows you to exert more force over a greater distance, reducing the amount of force needed. Short levers require more effort as they provide less mechanical advantage.
What advantage is there to making graduated cylinders narrow and tall rather than short and wide?
Greater accuracy in reading them.
Which has a greater mechianical advantage short ramp and a long ramp both reach a height of 1m?
The long ramp.
Does a long gently sloped inclined plane or a short steep inclined plane have the greatest mechanical advantage?
Long gently slope inclined plane
How do you find the mechanical advantage of a trebuchet?
The mechanical advantage of a trebuchet can be calculated by dividing the length of the long arm (from the pivot point to the location where the counterweight is attached) by the length of the short arm (from the pivot point to the sling pouch where the projectile is placed). This ratio represents how much the trebuchet amplifies the input force applied to the short arm to launch the projectile.
