प्रश्न
A block and tackle system of pulleys has a velocity ratio of 4.
- Draw a labelled diagram of the system indicating clearly the direction of the load and effort.
- Calculate the potential energy of the load 100 kgf lifted by this pulley to a height 5 m. (g = 10 ms−2)

उत्तर
a. Pulley drawn correctly with support.
Correct connection of tackle, Marking load and effort with correct direction and tension.
b. U = mgh
= 100 × 10 × 5
= 5000 J

A boy uses a single fixed pulley to lift a load of 50 kgf to some height. Another boy uses a single movable pulley to lift the same load to the same height. Compare the effort applied by them. Give a reason to support your answer.
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
