Question

tab is a simple machine. What is the mechanical advantage of the tab?

MA = output/input

A. 3.0
B. 21.0
C. 9.0
D. .7

Answer 1

The mechanical advantage of the tab can be determined by the ratio of the output force to the input force. Since it is not mentioned in the question, we do not have information about the forces involved in opening the soda can. Therefore, we cannot determine the mechanical advantage of the tab based on the given information.
