Distance along the slope divided by the vertical rise
MA= resistance force / effort force = Fr/Fe
A thick wedge has a greater mechanical advantage than a thin wedge. The mechanical advantage of a wedge is calculated by dividing the length of the slope by the thickness of the wedge. Therefore, a thicker wedge will have a larger mechanical advantage since it has a longer slope relative to its thickness.
The dingbat answer for "wedge" is "cut a slice."
The efficiency of a wedge is determined by the ratio of output force to input force. It is calculated as the length of the slope divided by the thickness of the wedge. The ideal mechanical efficiency of a wedge is 50%, assuming there are no energy losses.
To calculate wedge force, you can use the formula: F = T * tan(α), where F is the force applied to the wedge, T is the force perpendicular to the wedge (normal force), and α is the angle of the wedge. This formula assumes the wedge is ideal and there is no friction. Adjustments may need to be made for real-world applications where friction plays a role.
MA= resistance force / effort force = Fr/Fe
To determine the mechanical advantage of a wedge, you can use the formula: Mechanical Advantage (MA) = Length of the wedge / Width of the wedge. For the first wedge (6cm long, 3cm wide), MA = 6/3 = 2. For the second wedge (12cm long, 4cm wide), MA = 12/4 = 3. Therefore, the second wedge has a greater mechanical advantage of 3 compared to the first wedge's mechanical advantage of 2.
Utility wedge. Similar to a gap wedge or approach wedge.

No, a hammer is not a wedge ! When did you last wedge anything with a hammer ..
It's a wedge
The Loft. The approach wedge "A" is lofted between the pitching wedge "P" and the sand wedge "S"
It is an expression that describes the shape into which something is cut. A potato wedge, an apple wedge, a fruit wedge, a cheese wedge, and other examples are possible.
