Question | Answer |
---|---|
machine | allows you to work easier |
input force | force you exert on machine |
output force | force machine exerts on object |
3 ways to make work easier | change force, change distance, change direction |
pulley | changes direction of exerted force |
hockey stick | changes distance |
ramp | changes force |
mechanical advantage | ratio of output force to input force |
increase force | increase mechanical advantage |
increase distance | decrease mechanical advantage |
change direction | mechanical advantage does not change |
ideal machine | 100% efficient |
real machine | efficiency less than 100% (due to friction) |
