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);

E = \frac{M.A}{V.R} \times 100\%\\\\E = 0.833 \ \times \ 100\%\\\\ E = 83.3 \ \%

How do you identify all sensors, functions, and where we can use them?
Alex17521 [72]

Sensor/Detectors/Transducers are electrical, opto-electrical, or electronic devices composed of specialty electronics or otherwise sensitive materials, for determining if there is a presence of a particular entity or function. Many vehicles including cars, trains, buses etc. all use sensors to monitor oil temperature and pressure, throttle and steering systems and so many more aspects.
