Give a reason for the following:
In a single fixed pulley, the velocity ratio is always more than the mechanical advantage.

उत्तर
In a single fixed pulley, some effort is wasted in overcoming friction between the strings and the grooves of the pulley; so the effort needed is greater than the load and hence the mechanical advantage is less than the velocity ratio.
