The wire cutters in the picture are a type of complex machine because they are made of two simple machines, a lever and a wedge. An electrician grips the handles 10 cm from the pivot and places a wire between the jaws 2 cm from the pivot. If the cutter blades are 2 cm wide and 0.3 cm thick. The blades are a type of wedge. The mechanical advantage (MA) of a wedge is the width divided by the thickness. The overall MA of a complex machine is the product of each simple machine's MA. What is the overall MA of this complex machine
