The mechanical power of the human heart is ~1.3 watts. It takes a much higher rate of energy turnover (~13 watts) to provide this mechanical power, since the mechanical efficiency of the heart is very low (less than 10%).
Non-scientists provide additional sources of data that scientists can use.
Provide that no one length is greater than the sum of the other two lengths.
Mainly that it is an international standard. Also, calculations are easier in the metric system, because of the multiples based on powers of 10.
A slide rule is a simple mechanical analog calculator consisting of logarithmically graduated scales, one of which can be moved across the other so as to provide a method of multiplication or division by combining lengths on the scales.

Mechanical Advantage
As the height of an inclined plane increases, both the actual and ideal mechanical advantage also increase. This is because the mechanical advantage of an inclined plane is directly related to its slope, so a steeper incline will provide greater mechanical advantage compared to a shallower one.
yes
A fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of 1, which means it doesn't provide any mechanical advantage in terms of force. It changes the direction of the force applied without multiplying it.
A fixed pulley does not provide a mechanical advantage because it only changes the direction of the force applied, not the amount of force required.
When the effort force is decreased, the mechanical advantage must be increased in order to maintain the same level of output force. This can be achieved by either adjusting the length of the lever or using different mechanical systems that provide a greater advantage.
As the size of the wheel increases, the mechanical advantage of the wheel and axle system also increases. This is because a larger wheel allows for a larger distance to be covered with each rotation, resulting in less force required to achieve the same work. Therefore, larger wheels provide a greater mechanical advantage compared to smaller wheels.
The kind of pulley has an ideal machanical advantage of 2 is called "Movable Pulley". From, Bryan Hollick
A system with three or more pulleys would provide the maximum mechanical advantage. As the number of pulleys increases, the mechanical advantage also increases, making it easier to lift heavy loads.
A fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of 1, meaning it doesn't provide any mechanical advantage, but it changes the direction of the force. A free pulley also has a mechanical advantage of 1, as it only changes the direction of the force without providing any mechanical advantage.
The ideal mechanical advantage of a fixed pulley is 1, as it does not provide any mechanical advantage in terms of force. The direction of the input (effort) and output (load) for a fixed pulley is the same, as the pulley simply changes the direction of the force applied.
