Answer:

There is no mechanical advantage

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage is possible only when the force needed to lift a load is lesser than the weight of the load.

For example, is we have a mechanical advantage of 2, the force needed to lift will be 1/2 of the weight of the load, and if we have a mechanical advantage of 4, the force needed will be 1/4 of the weight of the load.

In the attached image there are clear examples of mechanical advantage with pulleys.

marin [14]

When you punch holes in opposite corners of a milk carton filled with water which is hanging from a string, water will start to flow outside with a certain force. There will be a reaction equal and opposite to this force that will make the milk carton start to spin.

This is a typical example of water turbine that is used to demonstrate the third Newton's law.
