Question

a pennyfarthing is a style of a bicycle with a very large front wheel and a small real wheel, the cyclist who sit high above and behind the front wheel pedals this wheel directly the distance the pedals are turned input distance in one rotation is about 0.64 m. if the mechanical advantage of the pennyfarthing is 0.16 how far does the large wheel turn in one rotation.

Answer 1

Answer:

In one rotation, the large wheel turns 4m.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Input distance,

= 0.64 m

Mechanical advantage,

= 0.16

As we know,

⇒ $Out. \ Distance = \frac{Inp. \ distance}{Mechanical \ advantage}$

On putting the values, we get

⇒                         $=\frac{0.64}{0.16}$

⇒                         $=4 \ m$
