To turn a resistance of 250 lb using a screwdriver with a mechanical advantage (MA) of 5, you would need to apply a force equal to one-fifth (1/5) of the resistance.
Formula to calculate force required = Resistance / MA
Therefore, the force required would be:
Force = 250 lb / 5
Force = 50 lb
You would need to apply a force of 50 lb to turn the resistance of 250 lb using the screwdriver with a mechanical advantage of 5.
Formula to calculate force required = Resistance / MA
Therefore, the force required would be:
Force = 250 lb / 5
Force = 50 lb
You would need to apply a force of 50 lb to turn the resistance of 250 lb using the screwdriver with a mechanical advantage of 5.
