The diagram represents a block-and-tackle pulley system on which an effort of 50N is just able to lift a load of weight W. If the efficiency of the machine is 40%. find the value of W
A
300N
B
200N
C
140N
D
120N
correct option: d

Eff = (\frac{MA}{VR}) x 100%

40 = (\frac{MA}{60})

MA = 240

(\frac{L}{E} = \frac{240}{100})

W = L = (\frac{240}{100}) x 50

= 120N
