A pulley system with VR = 4 is used to lift a load of 175 kgf through a vertical height of 15 m. The effort required is 50 kgf in the downward direction. (g = 10 N kg-1)
Calculate:
- Distance moved by the effort
- Work done by the effort
- M.A. of the pulley system
- Efficiency of the pulley system
From the diagram given below. answer the question that follows:

1) What kind of pulleys are A and B?
2) State the purpose of pulley B.
3) What effort has to be applied at C just raise the load L = 20 kgf?
(Neglect the weight of pulley A and friction)
State whether the following statement is True or False.
A pulley changes the direction of force.
Define the following term in reference to a gear system of Driving gear ?
What is a single movable pulley? What is its mechanical advantage in the ideal case?
In which direction does the force need to applied, when a single pulley is used with a mechanical advantage greater than one? How can you change the direction of force applied without altering its mechanical advantage? Draw a labelled diagram of the system.
The diagram below shows an arrangement of three pulleys A, B, and C. The load is marked as L and the effort as E.
- Name the Pulleys A, B, and C.
- Mark in the diagram the directions of load (L), effort (E) and tension T1 and T2 in the two strings.
- How are the magnitudes of L and E related to the tension T1?
- Calculate the mechanical advantage and velocity ratio of the arrangement.
- What assumptions have you made in parts (c) and (d)?

What is a block and tackle system of pulleys?
Draw a diagram of a single fixed pulley and obtain expressions for its:
(i) Mechanical advantage,
(ii) Velocity ratio, and
(iii) Efficiency, in the ideal case.
