where
is the radius of the wheel
is the radius of the axle
For the steering wheel of the problem, we see that and
, so the IMA is
2. Efficiency: 88.9%
Explanation:
The efficiency of a system is defined as the ratio between the AMA (actual mechanical advantage) and the IMA:
In this problem, AMA=8 and IMA=9, so the efficiency is
