jill applies a force of 250 n to a machine. the machine applies a force of 25 n to an object. what is the…

Explanation:

Step1: Recall mechanical - advantage formula

The formula for mechanical advantage (MA) is $MA=\frac{\text{Output force}}{\text{Input force}}$.

Step2: Identify input and output forces

The input force is the force applied to the machine, $F_{in}=250\ N$, and the output force is the force the machine applies to the object, $F_{out}=25\ N$.

Step3: Calculate mechanical advantage

$MA = \frac{F_{out}}{F_{in}}=\frac{25}{250}= 0.1$

Answer:

0.1
