Ski lift carry people along 150 m cable up the side of a mountain. Riders are lifted a total of 75 m in elevation. What is the ideal mechanical advantage of the ski lift?

Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) can be found by using the formula:

IMA = ID/OD

ID = Input Distance

OD = Output Distance

In the question, we are given:

ID = 150

OD = 75

Now, solve the expression with what we have.

IMA = 150/75

IMA = 2

Therefore, the IMA is 2.

Best of Luck!
