Answer:
See the explanation below.
Explanation:
A lever is a simple machine that changes the magnitude and direction of the force applied to move an object. Minimizes the force needed to lift the object.
By means of the following image, we can see the principle of operation of a lever.
The load can be moved thanks to the force multiplied by the distance to the fulcrum.
Answer:
Explanation:
mass of pulley, m3 = 1.5 kg
Radius of pulley, R = 0.09 m
mass of monkey, m2 = 4.5 kg
mass of banana bunch, m1 = 3 kg
Let a is teh acceleration ans T1 and T2 be the tension in the rope.
The moment of inertia of the pulley
I = 0.5 x m3 x R² = 0.5 x 1.5 x 0.09 x 0.09 = 0.006075 kgm²
According to Newton's second law
T1 - m1 g = m1 x a .... (1)
m2 g - T2 = m2 x a ..... (2)
(T2 - T1 ) x R = I x α
where, α is the angular acceleration
α = a / R
(T2 - T1)R = 0.5 x m3 x R² x a / R
T2 - T1 = 0.5 x m3 x a ..... (3)
from (1), (2) and (3)
a = 1.78 m/s²
from equation (1)
T1 = m1 ( g + a) = 3 ( 9.8 + 1.78) = 34.77 N
from equation (2)
T2 = m2 (g - a) = 4.5 (9.8 - 1.78) = 36.13 N
