Answer:
The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the load (the resistance overcome by a machine) to the effort (the force applied). For an ideal (without friction) mechanism, it is also equal to: There is no unit for mechanical advantages since the unit for both input and output forces cancel out.
Explanation:
If a person want to move a <span>heavy box across the room, he must apply a force that is greater than starting frictional force acted on the heavy box in order to get the box in motion. the frictional force is equal to coefficient of friction times the normal force, and normal force is approximately the weight of the object. so the force that must be applied must be greater than the wieght of the object.</span>
The volume of the block of wood is given by length × width ×height
= 2.75 × 4.80 × 7.5
= 99 cm³
Density is given by mass/volume
Thus = 84.0 g/ 99 cm³
= 0.848 g/cm³
Hence; since the block is less dense than water (1 g/cm³) it will float
