18) A screw thread is a kind of simple machine. It is a shaft with spiral grooves called threads formed on its surface. The closer the threads are, the higher the mechanical advantage. Why?

The threads increase the input force required.

The threads change potential energy to mechanical energy.

The threads increase the force over a shorter distance.

The threads increase the distance a force is applied.

19) If the mechanical advantage of a simple machine is 4, then the

effort is 4 times the output force.

output force is 4 times the effort.

efficiency is 4%

work output is 4 times the input.
