IMA = Ideal Mechanical Advantage
First class lever = > F1 * x2 = F2 * x1
Where F1 is the force applied to beat F2. The distance from F1 and the pivot is x1 and the distance from F2 and the pivot is x2
=> F1/F2 = x1 /x2
IMA = F1/F2 = x1/x2
Now you can see the effects of changing F1, F2, x1 and x2.
If you decrease the lengt X1 between the applied effort (F1) and the pivot, IMA decreases.
If you increase the length X1 between the applied effort (F1) and the pivot, IMA increases.
If you decrease the applied effort (F1) and increase the distance between it and the pivot (X1) the new IMA may incrase or decrase depending on the ratio of the changes.
If you decrease the applied effort (F1) and decrease the distance between it and the pivot (X1) IMA will decrease.
Answer: Increase the length between the applied effort and the pivot.
These are known as balanced forces because they will not change the motion of the object, and it will remain at rest unless forces become unbalanced- meaning they would be unequal and not opposing.

Answer:
20 pig callers
Explanation:
Given that:
A pig caller produced intensity level of a sound = 107 dB
To find how many pig callers required to generate an intensity level of 120 dB;
we have:
120 dB - 107 dB = 13 dB
Taking the logarithm function;

where;
= initial intensity


I = 19.95
I ≅ 20 pig callers
I'm pretty sure the answer is gold
