The mechanical advantage is 10.

We use machines to make our work easier and faster.

Mechanical advantage gives an idea of how much a mechanism makes our work easier.

It is the factor by which the mechanism multiplies the force or torque applied.

One way of calculating mechanical advantage is:

Mechanical Advantage= (output force)/ (input force)

So using this formula to answer the question above, the result is

20/2 = 10
