Laura asks…How to calculate gears and mechanical advantage?I'm trying to help my cousin with her physics homework, but I'm confused about it as well.
There is a top gear and a bottom gear.
Top gear diameter: 10 cm
Top weight: 1 rock unit
Bottom Gear diameter: 20 cm
bottom weight: 2 rock unit
What would the mechanical advantage be if there is a motor turning the top gear?
I researched and found that the force input should be the top gear for this situation, so would it be
Mechanical
