Question

What is the mechanical advantage of the class 1 lever?

Input = 60 n

Output = 360 n





a
.00138
b
216
c
60
d
21,600
e
6

Answer 1

The mechanical advantage of a class 1 lever is calculated by dividing the output force by the input force. In this case, the mechanical advantage of the lever can be determined by dividing the output force of 360 N by the input force of 60 N.

Mechanical Advantage = Output / Input
Mechanical Advantage = 360 N / 60 N
Mechanical Advantage = 6

Therefore, the mechanical advantage of the class 1 lever in this scenario is 6.
