(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

उत्तर

(ii) The purpose of the pulley Q is to change the direction of application of effort to a convenient direction.
(iii) In the diagram, T = E
(iv) If the free end of the string moves, through the distance x, the load will rise by a distance x/2.
Threfore, V.R = distance moved y the effort arm / distance moved by the load = `"x"/("x"//2) = 2`
(v) In equilibrium,L = 2T and E = T
efficiency = M.A / V. R
or, 1 = `("M ""A")/2`
⇒ M.A = 2
(vi) M.A = `"L"/"E"`
⇒ E = `"L"/("M"."A") = 100/2` = 50 N
