Answer:
1000N is needed to be applied.
Step-by-step explanation:
Machines make doing work easier. They allow us use small effort to carry out work on huge amount of load.
The mechanical advantage of a machine;
(M.A) =load/effort
M.A = 0.6
Load =600N
effort =?
0.6 = 600/effort
effort = 600/0.6
effort = 1000N
