A wheel and axle have radii 80cm and 10cm respectively. If the efficiency of the machine is 0.85, an applied force of 1200N to the wheel will raise a load of
- 8.0N
- 6.8N
-
8160N
- 9600N
The correct answer is: C
Explanation
Efficiency = m.A x \(\frac{1}{V.R}\) x 100%85 = \(\frac{load}{1200}\) x \(\frac{10}{80}\) x \(\frac{100}{1}\)
load = 8160N
