Arock climber uses a pulley system to pull himself 10 m up a tricky part of a rock face. if the pulley system has a mechanical advantage of 3 and the climber weighs 786 n, what force does he use?

Mechanical advantage M is the ratio of output force Fo and the input force Fi and it tells us how much times does a machine multiply the input force. In our case M=3 and Fo= 786N because we need the machine to output the same force as the climbers weight to pull him up. Lets input the numbers: 

M=Fo/Fi

Fi=Fo/M=763 N/3=262 N.

So we want to input 262 N of force to get 763 N of output force. 

Acetic acid  /əˈsiːtɪk/, systematically named  ethanoic acid  /ˌɛθəˈnoʊɪk/, is a colourless liquid  organic compound  with the  chemical formula  ch3cooh (also written as ch3co2h or c2h4o2). when undiluted, it is sometimes called  glacial acetic acid.  vinegar  is no less than 4% acetic acid by volume, making acetic acid the main component of vinegar apart from water. acetic acid has a distinctive sour taste and pungent smell. in addition to household vinegar, it is mainly produced as a precursor to  polyvinyl acetate  and  cellulose acetate. it is classified as a  weak acid  since it only partially  dissociates  in solution, but concentrated acetic acid is corrosive and can attack the skin.acetic acidnamespreferred iupac nameacetic acidsystematic iupac nameethanoic acidother namesvinegar (when dilute); hydrogen acetate; methanecarboxylic acid[1][2]identifierscas number64-19-7  3d model (jsmol)interactive image3dmetb00009 reference506007chebichebi: 15366  chemblchembl539  chemspider171  drugbankdb03166  echa infocard100.000.528ec number200-580-7e numbere260  (preservatives)gmelin reference1380iuphar/bps1058keggd00010  meshacetic+acidpubchem  cid176rtecs numberaf1225000uniiq40q9n063p  un number2789inchiinchi=1s/c2h4o2/c1-2(3)4/h1h3,(h,3,4)  key:   qtbsbxvteameqo-uhfffaoysa-n  smilescc(o)=o
