Using a simple machine, a student is able to lift a 500n weight by applying only 100n. what is the mechanical advantage of the simple machine?

Answer;

5

Explanation;Mechanical advantage is the ratio of output force divided by input force. Mechanical advantage calculates the amplified force achieved by a mechanical system. It is given by dividing the force applied on a load by the force required to overcome the given force.

M.A = Output force/input force

Output force = 500 N, input force = 100 N

      = 500 N/100 N

      = 5

Hydrogen is the most abundant element on the periodic table..hope it .
