Draw a diagram of combination of three movable pulleys and one fixed pulley to lift up a load. In the diagram, show the directions of load, effort and tension in each strand. Find:
(i) the mechanical advantage,
(ii) velocity ratio and
(iii) the efficiency of the combination in the ideal situation.
A woman draws water from a well using a fixed pulley. The mass of the bucket and water together is 6 kg. The force applied by the women is 70 N. Calculate the mechanical advantage. (Take g = 10 m s-2).
A fixed pulley is driven by a 100 kg mass falling at a rate of 8.0 m in 4.0 s. It lifts a load of 75.0 kgf.
Calculate —
(a) The power input to the pulley taking the force of gravity on 1 kg as 10 N.
(b) the efficiency of the pulley, and
(c) the height to which the load is raised in 4.0 s.
