The effort measured in S.I. system in liftinga load through a simple machine is numericallyequal to its mechanicaladvantage. If the mechanicaladvantage of the machine is increased by 20%, the same effort can lift a load of 12 kgwt. Find the magnitudes of the effort and the original load. (Take g=10 ms^(-2))

Answer»

Solution :(i) Definition of MECHANICAL advantage.
(ii) Relate mechanicaladvantage and effort in THETWO cases.
(iii) Convert the load GIVEN into S.I. units and use the definition of mechanicaladvantage.
(iv) Effort= 10 N , Load = 100 N
