Mechanical advantage 2026-10-31
The ratio of the useful load force to the applied effort force. For an ideal simple machine in slow motion, the ratio of effort displacement to load displacement gives the same number by conservation of work.

A mechanism that trades the magnitude or direction of an applied force against the displacement through which it acts. An ideal simple machine conserves work; it does not multiply energy.
