51. What is the velocity ratio in a simple machine?
- The ratio of output velocity to input velocity
- The ratio of input velocity to output velocity
- The ratio of force to distance
- The ratio of distance to time
Answer
The correct answer is: B) The ratio of input velocity to output velocity
Explanation
In a simple machine, its velocity ratio denotes the ratio of the input to output velocity. It represents how much the output velocity is amplified or reduced about the input velocity.
