A block and tackle system has 5 pulleys. If an effort 0f 1000 N is needed in the downward direction to raise a load of 4500 N, calculate:
- the mechanical advantage
- the velocity ratio, and
- the efficiency of the system.

A block and tackle system has 5 pulleys. (n = 5)
Effort = 1000 N
Load = 4500 N
- The mechanical advantage M.A = `"ЁЭСЩЁЭСЬЁЭСОЁЭСС"/"ЁЭСТЁЭСУЁЭСУЁЭСЬЁЭСЯЁЭСб"`= `4500/1000` = 4.5
- The velocity ratio = n = 5
- The efficiency of the system η = `"ЁЭСА.ЁЭР┤"/"ЁЭСЙ.ЁЭСЕ"`= `4.5/5``
= 0.9 ЁЭСЬЁЭСЯ 90%

A boy has to lift a load of mass 50 kg to a height of 1 m. (a) what effort is required if he lifts it directly? Take g = 10 N kg-1 (b) If the boy can exert a maximum effort of 250 N, so he uses an inclined plane to lift the load up. What should be the minimum length of the plank used by him?
A gear system has one wheel with 10 teeth and the other wheel with 50 teeth. Calculate the gain in speed and the gain in torque that you can obtain using them. What will be the gear ration in each case?
A gear system has the driving wheel of radius 2 cm and driven wheel of radius 20 cm.
(a) Find the gear ratio.
(b) If the number of rotations made per minute by the driving wheel is 100, find the number of rotations per minute made by the driven wheel.
(c) If the driven wheel has 40 teeth, find the number of teeth in the driving wheel.
You are given four pulleys and three strings. Draw a neat and labelled diagram to use them so as to obtain a maximum mechanical advantage equal to 8. In you diagram make the directions of load, effort and tension in each strand. What assumptions have you made to obtain the required mechanical advantage?
A fixed pulley is driven by a 100 kg mass falling at a rate of 8.0 m in 4.0 s. It lifts a load of 75.0 kgf. Calculate the efficiency of the pulley.
