A wheel and axle of radii 800mm and 200mm respectively is used to raise a body of weight 800N by the application of 250N. Calculate the efficiency of the machine
A.
85%
B.
80%
C.
60%
D.
20%
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation
V.R = \(\frac{R}{r} = \frac{800}{200} = 4\)
M.A = \(\frac{L}{E} = \frac{800}{250} = 3.2\)
y = \(\frac{M.A}{v.R} \times \frac{100}{1} = 80\)%
