| 41. | In general the more sheaves in the blocks that make up a tackle, the higher its mechanical advantage.
|
| 42. | This method can tighten the sprocket to very high torque because of high mechanical advantage created by the wheel.
|
| 43. | With the engine off, this brake band acting on the rear unit ring gear had a tremendous mechanical advantage.
|
| 44. | The crank is geared to give a negative mechanical advantage so that it can crank the machine at high speed.
|
| 45. | Extensive use of leverage also plays a critical role by providing a mechanical advantage and reducing the use of force.
|
| 46. | It is seen as part of a larger effort by athletes in many sports to gain mechanical advantage in competition.
|
| 47. | The mechanical advantage of a wedge is given by the ratio of the length of its slope to its width.
|
| 48. | Such screw jack type operation provided enough mechanical advantage for rams to overcome downhole pressures and seal the wellbore annulus.
|
| 49. | Some blocks are used to increase mechanical advantage and others are used simply to change the direction of a line.
|
| 50. | The assumption of constant power thus allows use of the speed ratio to determine the maximum value for the mechanical advantage.
