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%
