Verified Answer :

The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Z, X, W, Y." The table shows dimensions of four wheel and axles. Wheel and Axle Dimensions Radius of axle (cm) Radius of wheel (cm) 12, 18. The order of mechanical advantage from lowest to greatest is Z X W Y.

Z, W, X, Y

Explanation:

The mechanical advantage of each wheel and axles is given by:

\(MA=\frac{d_w}{d_a}\)

where

\(d_w\) is the length of the wheel

\(d_a\) is the length of the axle

So, let's compute the MA for each machine:

W: \(MA=12/4 = 3\)

X: \(MA=36/9=4\)

Y: \(MA=18/3=6\)

Z: \(MA=16/8=2\)

So, in order from the least MA to the greatest MA, we have

Z W X Y
