<span>The weight lifted by a machine to the applied force on a machine is called mechanical advantage.
This is written as Mechanical advantage, M. A, = load(weight)/effort.
So for 1) M.A = 2 and load = 2, 000lb = 8896.446N.
So 2 = 8896.446/ effort
Effort = 8896.446/2 = 4448.48
Similarly for M.A of 2, 000, 000 we have
Effort = 8896.446/ 2, 000, 000 = 0.004448</span>
The number of protons plus the number of neutrons decreases
Beta decay occurs when, in a nucleus with too many protons or too many neutrons, one of the protons or neutrons is transformed into the other. In beta minus decay, a neutron decays into a proton, an electron, and an antineutrino: n Æ p + e - +.
