It is recommended to eat about 4 grams of carbs for every pound of body weight per day. So, it means that Cynthia (55 kg ~ 121 pounds) needs to take in about 500 grams of carbohydrates daily. Carbohydrates are important nutrient for marathon athletes to consume when preparing for a marathon because the skeletal muscles are fuelled mainly by glucose derived from carbohydrates. Glucose is stored in the form of glycogen to promote a decrease in fatigue during the race.

3. How much a machine changes its input force is its __
diamong [38]

Mechanical advantage is the answer.

Option B.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

A machine is defined as the instrument which is used to perform some task easily, and with ease. A machine has the capability to give an output force in exchange of an input force. Now the ratio of the output force to input force is called as the mechanical advantage.

Mechanical advantage = Output force / input force.

For example, in case of a lever, there are three types - first class lever, second class lever, and third class lever. Mechanical advantage for a second class lever is always more than one, as we get more output force than input force. Similarly, the mechanical advantage for a third class lever is always less than 1, and mechanical advantage of first class lever can be both more or less or equal to one.
