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
Draw a neat labelled diagram showing a pulley being used to lift a load. How are load and effort related in an ideal situation?
State if the following statement is true or false. Correct the statement if it is false.
A single movable pulley is a pulley that has its axis of rotation fixed.
Differentiate between a single fixed pulley and a single movable pulley.
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)?
The diagram below shows a pulley arrangement.
(i) In the diagram, mark the direction of the forces due to tension, acting on the pulley P.
(ii) What is the purpose of the pulley Q?
(iii) If the tension is T newton, deduce the relation between T and E.
(iv) Calculate the velocity ratio of the arrangement.
(v) Assuming that the efficiency of the system is 100%, what is the mechanical advantage?
(vi) Calculate the value of E
Give a reason for the following:
In a single fixed pulley, the velocity ratio is always more than the mechanical advantage.
Write two uses of pulleys. Is pulley a force multiplier?
A type of single pulley is very often used as a machine even though it does not give any gain in mechanical advantage. Name the type of pulley used.
State one advantage of single movable pulley.
