    From the items on this list, the only one that allows calculation

    of the mechanical advantage is 'B' ... the lengths from the fulcrum

    to the effort and the resistance.

    The MA can also be calculated when you know the two forces ...

    the effort and the resistance ... when the lever is just balanced.
