Answer:
2.25 N
Explanation:
The formula for mechanical advantage is:
[tex]Mechanical \ Advantage = \frac{F_o}{F_i}[/tex]
[tex]F_o[/tex] stands for output force and [tex]F_i[/tex] stands for input force.
We can plug in the given forces into the equation:
[tex]Mechanical \ Advantage = \frac{450\ N}{200\ N}=2.25 \ N[/tex]
