Velocity Ratio given Distance Moved due to Effort and Distance Moved due to Load

LaTeX Go Velocity Ratio = (Distance Moved Due to Effort)/(Distance Moved Due to Load)

Effort Required by Machine to Overcome Resistance to Get Work Done

LaTeX Go Effort = Load/Mechanical Advantage

Load Lifted given Effort and Mechanical Advantage

LaTeX Go Load = Mechanical Advantage*Effort

Mechanical Advantage given Load and Effort

LaTeX Go Mechanical Advantage = Load/Effort

Efficiency of Machine given Mechanical Advantage and Velocity Ratio Formula

LaTeX Go

Efficiency = Mechanical Advantage/Velocity Ratio
η = M_a/V_i
