Solution

The correct option is B none
Mechanical advantage is a parameter that describes how much of the effort that is put into a simple machine, goes into manipulating the load. In other words, it is the ratio of the output work to the input work of a machine. Since it is the ratio of two identical quantities, it has no units.
