Suppose that you are riding a bicycle. You exert an effort force of 697 N downward as you push on the pedals. The resulting load force that causes the bicycle to move forward is 93 N. What is the mechanical advantage of the bicycle? (Round to the tenths place)

The mechanical advantage of the bicycle is 0.1.

Explanation:

A simple machine is a machine that produces the output if we give the required input, and so the output always depends on the input force. Sometimes machines can also reduce the input force to get the required output and the ratio of output to input force is called as the mechanical advantage.

MA =

Now we have the input force = 697 N

Output force = 93 N

So Mechanical advantage can be calculated by inserting those values as, MA =

     = 0.1

So the mechanical advantage of the bicycle is 0.1.
