Question

200 N of force is applied to the pedals of a bike has output force of 450 N what is the mechanical advantage of the bike

Answer 1

Answer:

2.25 N

Explanation:

The formula for mechanical advantage is:

$Mechanical \ Advantage = \frac{F_o}{F_i}$

$F_o$ stands for output force and $F_i$ stands for input force.

We can plug in the given forces into the equation:

$Mechanical \ Advantage = \frac{450\ N}{200\ N}=2.25 \ N$
