You use a wedge that has a width of 1.1 in and a slope length of 3.3 in. What
is the mechanical advantage of this wedge?
O A. 4.5
O B. 2.2
O C. 0.33
O D.3

Answer :

Answer:

D. 3

Explanation:

First of all the mechanical advantage of a wedge is defined as the ratio of its slope length to its width.

Mathematically,

[tex]IMA = \frac{L}{W}[/tex]

where,

IMA= Mechanical Advantage

L= slope length, and

w= width.

Given that,

slope length, L= 3.3 inches, and

width ,W= 1.1 inches

Then,

Mechanical Advantage, IMA

[tex] = \frac{3.3}{1.1} = 3[/tex]

3
