प्रश्न
Give reason for the following:
The lower block of a block and tackle pulley system must be of negligible weight
उत्तर
The lower block pulleys should be as light as possible to maximise efficiency, and lubricants should be used to reduce friction in pulley bearings.

Calculate
1) Distance moved by the effort
2) Work done by the effort
3) M.A. of the pulley system
4) Efficiency of the pulley system

What is a block and tackle system of pulleys? What precautions would you observe while rounding the string so that the effort is applied in the downward direction?
A ‘block and tackle’ system used 3 pulleys in the lower block and 4 pulleys in the upper block. What is the ‘velocity ratio’ of this system? If the load is to be lifted by a person capable of applying a maximum effort of 1000 N, what is the maximum load than can be lifted under ideal conditions?
The actual maximum load that gets lifted turns out to be 6300 N. What are the values of the actual M.A. and efficiency of the set-up?
A boy lifts a load of 40 kgf through a vertical height of 2m in 5s by using a single fixed pulley when he applies an effort of 48 kgf. Calculate:
(i) the mechanical advantage, and
(ii) the efficiency of the pulley. Why is the efficiency of the pulley is not 100%?
(iii) the energy gained by the load in 5s, and
(iv) the power developed by the boy in raising the load.
| Meera chose to use a block and tackle system of '9' pulleys instead of a single movable pulley to lift a heavy load. |
Why should she connect more number of pulleys in the upper fixed block?
