The formula for work exerted by each simple machine is: Lever: Work = Input force × Input distance = Output force × Output distance Inclined plane: Work = Input force × Input distance = Output force × Output distance Pulley: Work = Input force × Input distance = Output force × Output distance Wheel and axle: Work = Input force × Input radius = Output force × Output radius Wedge: Work = Input force × Input distance = Output force × Output distance Screw: Work = Input force × Input distance = Output force × Output distance
The efficiency of a wedge is determined by the ratio of output force to input force. It is calculated as the length of the slope divided by the thickness of the wedge. The ideal mechanical efficiency of a wedge is 50%, assuming there are no energy losses.
A wedge allows you to apply a smaller input force over a longer distance to produce a larger output force over a shorter distance. This mechanical advantage is achieved by the inclined plane of the wedge, which helps in splitting or lifting heavy objects more easily.
is an omr and input or output device?
both input r output
Input device.
A wedge is a two-sided inclined plane used to separate objects or materials by converting downward input force into sideways output force. It is commonly used in applications where splitting, cutting, or lifting is required.
output and input
it is an output device
output/input
Neither, it is not classified under input or output. It has its own identity
What is the difference between output and input?If you sing into a microphone you can hear the microphone's output.Sound coming out of the power amp to the speakers.That is the input of the loudspeaker.Do you see the difference?Your voice is the microphone's input. Its output is electrical impulses that are input to the amplifier. The amplified impulses are the output of the amplifier and input to the speaker. Sound waves are output of the speaker and input to your ears.
