Explanation:

A block and tackle consisting of 5 pulleys is used to raised a load of 400N through a height of 10m.If the work done against friction is 100j.

Calculate;

1)The work done by the effort

2)The efficiency of the system

3)The effort applied

1) Workdone by the effort is the work input = Load * distance moved by the Load

Workdone by the effort = 400 * 10

Workdone by the effort = 4000Joules

2) Efficiency = Work output/Work input * 100

Work output = work done against friction = 100 Joules

Efficiency = 100/4000 * 100

Efficiency = 10000/4000

Efficiency  = 25%

Hence the Efficiency of the system is 25%

3) Using the efficiency formula:

efficiency = MA/VR * 100

Velocity ratio = 5

MA = Load/Effort

efficiency = (L/E)/5 * 100

25 = 400/E/5 * 100

25/100 = 400/5E

0.25 = 400/5E

0.25 * 5E = 400

1.25E = 400

E = 400/1.25

E = 320N

hence the effort applies is 320N

the arctic is a region of the planet, north of the arctic circle, and includes the arctic ocean, greenland, baffin island, other smaller northern islands, and the far northern parts of europe, russia (siberia), alaska and canada.

the motion of a pendulum is a classic example of mechanical energy conservation. a pendulum consists of a mass (known as a bob ) attached by a string to a pivot point. as the pendulum moves it sweeps out a circular arc, moving back and forth in a periodic fashion.
