The mechanical advantage of a class 1 lever is equal to the ratio of the load (output force) to the effort (input force). In this case, the load is 360 N and the effort is 60 N.
So, the mechanical advantage (MA) = 360 N / 60 N = 6.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. 6.
So, the mechanical advantage (MA) = 360 N / 60 N = 6.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. 6.
