Question

What is the expression for Velocity Ratio (V.R), if the velocity of effort and the velocity of the load are denoted as V1 and V2 respectively?

• A. V2=V1
• B. V1+V2=0
• C. V1/V2
• D. V2/V1

Answer 1

The correct option is C

V1/V2

The ratio of the velocity of effort to the velocity of the load is called Velocity Ratio(V.R).

Let velocity of effort be V1 and velocity of load be V2

So, Velocity ratio (V.R) = V1/V2
