A screw jack raises a load of 40 kN. The screw is square threaded having three threads per 20 mm length and 40 mm in dia. Calculate the force required at the end of a lever 400mm long ...Read more
A lifting machine having a velocity ratio of 28 starts raising a load of 6420 N on applying an effort of 45 N to it. If suddenly the effort is removed find whether the load comes down or ...Read more
In a lifting machine in which velocity ratio is 30, a load of 5000 N is lifted with an effort of 360 N. Determine whether it is self-locking or reversible machine. How much is the frictional resistance?
In a lifting machine an effort of 150 N raised a load of 7700 N. What is the mechanical advantage? Find the velocity ratio if the efficiency at this load is 60%. If by the same machine, a ...Read more
In a simple machine, whose velocity ratio is 30, a load of 2400 N is lifted by an effort of 150 N and a load of 3000 N is lifted by an effort of 180 N. Find the ...Read more
