engineering approach their work by finding new solutions to their problems. like if two things dont go together in an invention, they will find another way
Answer:
(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R) = 1
(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A) = 0.833
(c) The efficiency of the machine (E) = 83.3 %
Explanation:
Given;
load lifted by the pulley, L = 400 N
effort applied in lifting the, E = 480 N
distance moved by the effort, d = 5 m
(a) the velocity ratio of the machine (V.R);
since the effort applied moved downwards through a distance of d, the load will also move upwards through an equal distance 'd'.
V.R = distance moved by effort / distance moved by the load
V.R = 5/5 = 1
(b) The mechanical advantage of the machine (M.A);
M.A = L/E
M.A = 400 / 480
M.A = 0.833
(c) The efficiency of the machine (E);

Answer:
Obviously you shouldn't rely just on the meter for your safety. You'd disconnect wall fuses or kill main switches before you start, using the meter just gives you some extra protection: with the meter you might notice for example that you've disconnected the wrong fuse and the unit is still live.
