  1. Calculating Mechanical Advantage Inclined Plane, Pulley, Lever

  2. Mechanical Advantage- Inclined Plane distance height Mechanical Advantage = distance height

  3. Now show me what you have learned!

  4. What is the mechanical advantage of a ramp that is 10 meters long and 2 meters high? 10 meters 2 meters A. 20 B. 5 C. 0.2 D. 10

  5. What is the mechanical advantage of a ramp that is 12 meters long and 4 meters high? A. 3 B. 48 C. 4 D. 0.3

  6. Mechanical Advantage- Pulley MA = count the # of “supporting ropes”

  7. Now show me what you have learned!

  8. A B C E E E What is the mechanical advantage of the pulley A, B, and C? MA = 4 MA = 3 MA = 3

  9. Effort arm = INPUT FORCE Resistance arm = OUTPUT FORCE Mechanical Advantage- Lever MA = Output Force (Newtons)___ Input Force (Newtons) MA = distance of the EFFORT arm distance of the RESISTANCE arm

  10. What is the mechanical advantage of the lever below? MA = distance of the EFFORT arm distance of the RESISTANCE arm 4 cm 2 cm A. 8 B. 0.5 C. 2 D. 4

  11. MA = distance of the EFFORT arm distance of the RESISTANCE arm What is the mechanical advantage of the lever below? 10 cm 5 cm A. 5 B. 0.5 C. 2 D. 50
