Answer:
the distance that the object is raised above its initial position is 5.625 m.
Explanation:
Given;
applied effort, E = 15 N
load lifted by the ideal pulley system, L = 16 N
distance moved by the effort, d₁ = 6 m
let the distance moved by the object = d₂
For an ideal machine, the mechanical advantage is equal to the velocity ratio of the machine.
M.A = V.R
[tex]M.A = \frac{Load}{Effort} = \frac{L}{E} \\\\V.R = \frac{disatnce \ moved \ by \ the \ effort}{disatnce \ moved \ by \ the \ load} = \frac{d_1}{d_2} \\\\For \ ideal \ machine; \ M.A = V.R\\\\\frac{L}{E} = \frac{d_1}{d_2} \\\\d_2 = \frac{E \times d_1}{L} \\\\d_2 = \frac{15 \times 6}{16} \\\\d_2 = 5.625 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the distance that the object is raised above its initial position is 5.625 m.
