Answer:
37.5N of effort is needed
Explanation:
Assuming efficiency of the machine is 100%
Efficiency = Work done by the load/Work done by the effort × 100%
100% = Work done by the load/Work done by the effort × 100%
1 = Work done by the load/Work done by the effort
Cross multiplying,
Work done by effort = Work done by Load
Note that work done = Force × distance
Work done by load = Weight × resistance arm
= 200×1.5
= 300Nm... 1
Work done by effort = Effort × effort arm
= 8 × Effort... 2
Equating 1 and 2, we have;
300 = 8×Effort
Effort = 300/8
Effort = 37.5N
Answer:
37.5N
Explanation:
Step 1:
Data obtained from the question.
Effort arm length = 8m
Resistance arm length = 1.5m
Effort force =.?
Resistance force = 200N
Step 2:
Determination of the effort required to lift the 200N weight.
The effort required can be achieved by applying the following equation:
Effort force x Effort arm length = Resistance force x Resistance arm length
Effort force x 8 = 200 x 1.5
Divide both side by 8
Effort force = (200 x 1.5) /8
Effort force = 37.5N
Therefore, an effort of 37.5N is required to lift the 200N weight
