Answer:

Mechanical advantage is the ratio of the load and effort.

Mechanical advantage of a pulley is 1.

Explanation:  

A pulley system will help in reducing the effort when lifting a load. If more pulleys are used, less effort force is required, making the lifting easy.

When only one pulley is used to lift a load, the mechanical advantage is 1.

If the number of pulleys used are increased, less effort can be applied, as the mechanical advantage increases.

The mechanical advantage is equal to the number of ropes passing over the pulley or pulleys to which the load is attached.

The rope along which the effort is applied is not counted.

How do electrons flow through a wire
aniked [119]

Every atom has electrons. When you add new electrons to the wire, they will be passed on to an atom. The electrons keep passing from atom to atom until it reaches the light source, basically. It's kinda like that one song "100 jugs of milk" or whatever it's called. Each atom passes the atom next to it an electron.

Explanation:

When you run, your body has a kinetic energy  and when you fall while running, the friction between the carpet and your foot, transforms the kinetic energy into thermal energy or heat energy. This can even cause, real burn if the skin were too hot.
