Q23. A pulley system consists of six identical pulleys arranged in two groups of three as shown below. What is the mechanical advantage of the system? Q24. The pulley in the question above is used to lift a mass of 500 kg through a height of 2.5 m. Ignoring friction, determine (a) The force applied to the free end of the rope (b) The maximum tension at any point in the rope (c) The work done Q25. In the question above, it is found that in reality a force of 1000 N must be applied to lift the mass. Why is this? What is (a) the efficiency of the system and (b) the actual work done in lifting the mass? What becomes of the additional energy expended?
