Can you solve this question please help me with this

Explanation:

The velocity ratio of  a wheel and axle is the ratio of the radius (R) of the wheel to the radius (r) of the axle. It is expressed as;

VR = R/r

Since radius = diameter/2

VR = (D/2)/(d/2)

VR = D/d

D is the diameter of the wheel and 'd' is the diameter of the axle.

Given VR = 3 and d = 5cm

3 = D/5

D = 15 cm

If the diameter of the wheel is 15cm, the radius of the wheel will be 15/2 = 7.5cm.

b) Workdone by the load = Load * distance moved by load

Given load = 60kg

Distance moved by load = 2π*radius of axle

Distance moved by load  = 2π(0.025) = 0.157

workdone by load = 60* 0.157 = 9.42J

Effort = Workdone by load/distance moved by the wheel

Effort = 9.42/2π(0.075)

Effort = 9.42/0.471

Effort = 20kg

Hence the effort applied is 20kg

c) MA = Load/Effort

MA = 60/20

MA = 3

d) Efficiency = MA/VR * 100%

Efficiency = 3/3 * 100%

Efficiency = 100%
