Choose the correct option for wheelbarrow.
Effort arm = Load arm
Load arm > Effort arm
Effort arm > Load arm
None of these
The wheelbarrow is a force multiplier. Hence, the effort arm is longer than the load arm in a wheelbarrow.
A man uses a crowbar of length 1.5m to raise a load of 75 kgf by putting a sharp edge below the bar at a distance of 1m from his hand. The load is at the opposite end of the effort. Calculate (i) load arm (ii) effort arm (iii) mechanical advantage and (iv) the effort needed.
When the effort arm is greater than the load arm then mechanical advantage is
When the effort arm is greater than the load arm the mechanical advantage is one.
