7. A complex arrangement of pulleys forms what is called the block in a block
and tackle. The rope used to lift the pulleys and the load is the tackle. A block
and tackle is used to lift a truck engine, which weighs nearly 7,406 N. The
force required to lift this weight using the block and tackle is 308.6 N. What is
the mechanical advantage of the block and tackle?

Answer:

24

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Load  = 7406N

Effort  = 308.6N

Unknown:

The mechanical advantage of the block and tackle system = ?

Solution:

Mechanical advantage is the ability of a simple machine to amplify or increase the force needed to do work.

  Mathematically;

     M.A = Output force / Input force

Output force  = Load

Input force  = Effort

     M.A = 7406N / 308.6N  = 24

The mechanical advantage is 24
