What is the mechanical advantage of a machine that applies a force of 1000 cap n to an object when a force of 500 cap n is applied to the machine?

Mechanical advantage is the force the machine applies to the object divided by the force applied to the machine. Here, 1000 N ÷ 500 N = 2, so the mechanical advantage is 2, choice B.
