    Question

    The effort applied to move a load is 15 units and the machine advantage is observed to be 3. Find the load.

    A.

    15 units

    B.

    45 units

    C.

    3 units

    D.

    5 units

    Correct option is B

    Mechanical Advantage (MA) is typically defined as
    MA = Load (output force)Effort (input force).\frac{\text{Load (output force)}}{\text{Effort (input force)}}.
    Given MA = 3 and Effort=15 units, the load is:
    Load = MA × Effort = 3 × 15 = 45 units.
