Relation between Efficiency, Mechanical Advantage and Velocity Ratio
Relation between Efficiency, Mechanical Advantage and Velocity Ratio: Overview
This topic explains to us the relation between efficiency, mechanical advantage and velocity ratio. We will learn that the mechanical advantage is equal in value to the product of efficiency and velocity ratio.
