What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley with 3 support ropes?
1 answer:
Answer:
The mechanical advantage is 3 to 1
Explanation:
A frictionless pulley with three support ropes carries equal tension on each of the ropes thus;
Tension in each pulley rope = T
Total tension in the 3 ropes = 3 × T = 3·T
Direction of the tension forces on each rope = Unidirectional
Total force provided by the 3 ropes = 3·T
Therefore, a force, T, applied at the end of the rope will result in a lifting force of 3·T
Hence, the mechanical advantage = 3·T to T which is presented as follows;
The mechanical advantage = 3 to 1.

Answer:
T₂ =93.77 °C
Explanation:
Initial temperature ,T₁ =27°C= 273 +27 = 300 K
We know that
Absolute pressure = Gauge pressure + Atmospheric pressure
Initial pressure ,P₁ = 300+1=301 kPa
Final pressure ,P₂= 367+1 = 368 kPa
Lets take temperature=T₂
We know that ,If the volume of the gas is constant ,then we can say that
Now by putting the values in the above equation we get
The temperature in °C
T₂ = 366.77 - 273 °C
T₂ =93.77 °C
