Some homes have stairs that are too steep or narrow for moving large pieces of furniture. In such cases, furniture may be lift e

d by pulleys and moved in through upper windows. What is the efficiency of a system that uses 280 N of force to lift a 100 kg bed 6 m to an upper window? Those working the system have to pull 24 m of rope to lift the bed.

Answer:

The efficiency of the system is 89.3%

Explanation:

Efficiency of a machine is defined as the ratio of useful work done by a machine to the total work put into the machine.

Mathematically, efficiency = (work output/work input) * 100%

work output = load * load distance

where load = 100 kg * 10 m/s² = 1000 N; load distance = 6m

work output = 1000 * 6 = 6000 J

work input = effort * effort distance

where effort = 280 N, effort distance = 24 m

work input = 280 * 24 = 6720 J

Efficiency = (6000/6720) * 100%

Efficiency = 89.3%

Therefore, the efficiency of the system is 89.3%

Blizzard [7]

nebular hypothesis

The most widely accepted theory of planetary formation, known as the nebular hypothesis, maintains that 4.6 billion years ago, the Solar System formed from the gravitational collapse of a giant molecular cloud which was light years across. Several stars, including the Sun, formed within the collapsing cloud.
