Calculate the mechanical advantage of a WEDGE and a PULLY

Friday, February 21, 2025

 



Mechanical Advantage of a Wedge: The mechanical advantage of a wedge is calculated by dividing its length by its width. For example, a wedge with a length of 6 inches and a width of 3 inches has a mechanical advantage of 2 (6/3 = 2).

Mechanical Advantage of a Pulley System: In a pulley system with identical pulleys, the mechanical advantage is determined by the formula 2*n, where 'n' represents the number of pulleys. A system with four pulleys, therefore, has a mechanical advantage of 8 (2 4 = 8).
