Given that a lever has a mechanical advantage of 6.0 and is 100% efficient, if the resistance is to be lifted 2.0 inches, then h
Shalnov [3]
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the force produced by the machine to the force applied to it. Therefore, we may calculate the applied force using:
Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied
6 = 2 / force applied
Force applied = 1/3

Thus, the distance that the effort must move will be 1/3 inch
