Best Answer

a speed multiplier is an object which moves at high speed and multiplies that to create more speed with an object it is trying to move. an example is hitting a tennis ball with a tennis raquet - you swing your arm/hand at a short distance at high speed and great effort so travels a great distance at an even higher speed. the distance the ball moves is large so the force by your arm/hand is small. hope this helps! :)
speed multiplier- machine that requires a small movement of an effort to produce a large movement of a load, such as a third class lever.

obviously about 100 MHz, since the core speed is calculated by multiplying the system clock speed and the given multiplier.


What is the difference between a force multiplier and a speed multiplier?

A force multiplier increases the effort force and the mechanical advantage is larger than one (Which means it is easier to move a large load with a small effort). While the speed multiplier does not make the effort easier but makes the load move through a larger distance than the effort. The mechanical advantage of a speed multiplier is usually lower than 1.

Is a bicycle a speed multiplier?

The top speed for a bicycle depends on the rider (strength, stamina, coordination, muscle speed), the gearing of the bicycle, and the terrain it is being ridden over. The current record speed is 268.831 km/h - which was set on a specially designed bicycle ridden behind a dragster (to eliminate most of the air drag) on October 3, 1995 on the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah, USA.
