Mechanical advantage: you can use some method (eg, lever or pulley wheels) to move an object which otherwise would be too heavy, or jammed. The trade off is that you can't get away with using less work - the reduced force you need to apply is compensated by the fact you have to move your force throgh a proportionately larger distance.

Where can a gasket be used in mechanical systems?

A gasket is a seal that is used in mechanical systems. It is used to fill the space between two or more surfaces that meet in order to prevent leakage.


What are non-mechanical systems?

Non-mechanical systems, are just as it is called. They are somewhat the opposite of mechanical systems. The difference being that mechanical systems are systems such as robots, coneyer belts...etc. and non mechanical systems are systems such as school system, or health care system, there is also a government system as well


How do distances between planets solar systems galaxies and the universe compare?

The distance between planets are measured in millions of kilometers while the distance between solar systems are measured in light years while the galxies and the universe are measured in AU (astronautical units)


What are similarities and differences of mechanical advantage in simple machines and hydraulic systems?

they both make things easier to do. one uses cylinders and fluid to make a force the other uses mechanics.


Why so helpful to reduce friction on simple machines?

Friction force oppose motion between two bodies that are in contact. This force is important in machines and pulley systems in that it enables the gears to have grip and there is no unnecessary sliding.


Are the 4ws systems on the 89 preludes and the 91 preludes the same?

What is the difference between mechanical engineering and industrial engineering and management?

Mechanical engineering deals with principles of engineering, physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. Industrial engineering deals with the optimization of complex processes or systems. It is concerned with the development, improvement, implementation and evaluation of integrated systems of people, money, knowledge, information, equipment, energy, materials, analysis and synthesis.
