Sample questions

  1. 1.How is the mechanical advantage (M.A.) of a machine mathematically defined?
    • A.M.A. = Effort force / Load
    • B.M.A. = Load / Effort force
    • C.M.A. = Work input / Work output
    • D.M.A. = Load * Effort force
  2. 2.Mechanical advantage being a ………… ratio is an ………… quantity.
    • A.pure, unit-less.
    • B.impure, measurable.
    • C.cute, impure.
    • D.pure, irregular.
  3. 3.Derive the relationship that connects mechanical advantage (M.A.), velocity ratio (V.R.), and efficiency of a machine. Which of the following correctly expresses this relationship?
    • A.Efficiency = (M.A. × V.R.) × 100%
    • B.Efficiency = (M.A. / V.R.) × 100%
    • C.Efficiency = (V.R. / M.A.) × 100%
    • D.Efficiency = M.A. + V.R. × 100%
  4. 4.The MA of sugar tongs is
    • A.< 1
    • B.>1
    • C.= 1
    • D.None of these
  5. 5.A force of 5 kgf is required to cut a metal sheet. A shears used for cutting the metal sheet has its blades 5 cm long, while its handles are 10 cm long. What effort is needed to cut the sheet?
