Question

Define Mechanical advantage

fe effort of 2125N is used to lift a Lead of 500N
through a Verticle high of 2.N using a buly System
if the distance Moved by the effort is 45m
Calculate 1. Work done on the load
2. work done by the effort
3. Efficiency of the System​

Answer 1

1) 1000Nm

2) 95,625Nm

3) 1.05%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mechanical Advantage is the ratio of the load to the effort applied to an object.

MA = Load/Effort

1) Workdone on the load = Force(Load) * distance covered by the load

Workdone on the load = 500N * 2m

Workdone on the load = 1000Nm

2) work done by the effort = Effort * distance moves d by effort

work done by the effort = 2125 * 45

work done by the effort = 95,625Nm

3) Efficiency = Workdone on the load/ work done by the effort * 100

Efficiency = 1000/95625 * 100

Efficiency = 1.05%

Hence the efficiency of the system is 1.05%
