A block and tackle system has six pulleys. a force of 50N applied to it lifts a load of weight W. If the efficiency of the system is 40%, calculate W
-
A.
300N
-
B.
200N
-
C.
140N
-
D.
120N
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation
M.A = \(\frac{E \times V.R}{100} = \frac{40 \times 6}{100} = \frac{12}{5}\)
W = M.A x effort
= \(\frac{12}{5} \times 50 = 120N\)
