प्रश्न
A pulley system has a velocity ratio 3. Draw a diagram showing the point of application and direction of load (L), effort (E) and tension (T). It lifts a load of 150 N by an effort of 60 N. Calculate its mechanical advantage. Is the pulley system ideal? Give reason.

उत्तर

Given,
Effort = 60 N
Load = 150 N
As we know,
M.A. = `"Load"/"Effort"`
Substituting the values in the formula for M.A. we get,
= `150/60`
= 2.5 N
Therefore, Mechanical advantage = 2.5
