,4. !ulley
! $ulley is a sim$le machine consists of a grooved wheel3 called sheave3 over which a string can $ass? The wheel is ca$a#le of turning freely a#out an a8le $assing through its centre? The a8le is fi8ed to a frame worB3 called the #locB? The $ulley is fi8ed or mova#le accordingly as its #locB is fi8ed or mova#le?
The Single Fi-ed !ulley
Shows a fi8ed $ulley in which the #locB of the $ulley is fi8ed to a rigid su$$ort? The load G is attached to one end of the string $assing round the groove of the $ulley and effort P is a$$lied at the other of the $ulley and effort P is a$$lied at the other end? Gith a $erfectly smooth $ulley and a weightless string3 the tension of the string will #e the same throughout? ence the distance through which the load is raised3 is e

2echanical advantage
In $ractice3 $ulleys are not $erfectly frictions3 and G is always less than P3 that is3 the mechanical advantage is always less than +? Out in s$ite of this3 the arrangement is useful as the o$erator can use the weight of this #ody for raising the land? It is generally used for raising weights3 drawing curtains etc?
Single Mo)able /ulley
ere one end of the string $asses round the $ulley ! and is attached to a fi8ed su$$ort 2 as shown in? The effort P is a$$lied at the other end of the ro$e $assing over a fi8ed $ulley O? The load w to #e raised is attached to the #locB of mova#le $ulley !? The fi8ed $ulley is used only to a$$ly the $ower in the downward direction? It is assumed that the $ulleys are frictionless and the tension in the string is the same at all $oints and is e
Thus a given effort can raise twice its weight? If the weight of the $ulley is w3 then G%w4P
"r 2echanical advantages 4 The single mova#le $ulley is much used in cranes? Sails in #oats and flags are raised and lowered with the hel$ of mova#le $ulleys?
&ombination of !ulleys
! com#ination of $ulleys is very often used to secure a mechanical advantages greater than two? Different systemEs having different mechanical advantages are used for different $ur$oses3 #ut the most im$ortant com#ination3 which is in general use3 is given here?
!ulley Bloc1
This system consists of two #locBs3 each containing or $ulleys? The u$$er #locB is fi8ed to a su$$ort and the lower one is mova#le to which the load G is attached? The string is attached to the u$$er or to the lower #locB3 and is then $assed round a mova#le and a fi8ed $ulley in turn finally $assing over a fi8ed $ulley3 the effort $ #eing a$$lied at the free end? It should #e noted that when the string is attached to the u$$er #locB3 the num#ers of wheels in the two #locBs must #e the same3 #ut when it is attached to the lower #locB3 the num#er of wheels in it will #e one less than that in the u$$er one? The tension everywhere round the string is the same and is e
To$ ,5. The Inclined !lane
!n inclined $lane is a smooth rigid flat surface inclined at an angle to the horiHontal? It is used to facilitate the rising of a heavy #ody to a certain height #y the a$$lication of a force which is less than the weight of the #ody? The fair-case and the roads on the hills are ty$ical e8am$les? 7et !O #e a $lane inclined at an angle ' to the horiHontal line !C and OC is the height of the $lane? The #ody $laced on the $lane is acted u$on #y three forces 9i: G3 its weight acting vertically downwards 9G4mg:3 9ii: $3 the force or effort3 and 9iii: R3 the reaction of the $lane? &ase0 I0 7et the force P act u$ward along the $lane?

! lever is a sim$le machine and consists the rest of the lever can turn? This fi8ed $oint is called the fulcrum? The $er$endicular distance #etween the fulcrum and the $oint of a$$lication of the $ower is called the $ower arm the $er$endicular distance #etween the fulcrum and the $oint of a$$lication of the weight arm of the lever?

This is Bnown as the $rinci$le of lever? The lever is used for $ulling weights or overcoming resistance #y the a$$lication of force at a suita#le $oint? From the a#ove relation it is clear that #y increasing the length of the $ower arm3 we can lift a greater weight with the lever?
The Straight Le)ers

c:
Ghen the lever is straight and the effort and the weights act $er$endicular to the lever3 the following three distinct classes of levers are found in $ractice according to the relative $ositions of !3 O and Fthe $oints of a$$lication of the effort3 the weight and the fulcrum res$ectively? In each of these cases3 three $arallel forces are acting on the #ody? They3 therefore3 are in the e
A le)er of the first order
In this case the effort P and the weight G act on the o$$osite sides of the fulcrum F? ere reaction R is the middle force3 therefore3 P and G act in the same direction and R in the o$$osite direction? To lift the weight3 the effort must #e a$$lied downwards3 and the reaction acts u$wards so that lever $resses downwards on the fulcrum? TaBing moments a#out F3 we have
!F may #e either greater3 e
Second *rder
In this case3 the weight is $laced #etween the effort and the fulcrum? ence G is the middle force? Therefore3 P and R act in the same direction and G in the o$$osite direction? To lift the weight3 the effort must #e a$$lied in the direction? The reaction of the fulcrum also acts u$wards? TaBing moments a#out the fulcrum F3 we have3
Out in this class of levers !K is greater than Of3 there force3 mechanical advantage G/P is greater than unity? !lso
G 4 P % R

R 4 G- P
The e8am$les of this class are a crow #ar3 a wheel #arrow3 a tin o$ener3 foot #ellows and lifting of a lid of #o8? ! $air of ordinary nut-cracBers and corB s
Third *rder
ere the effort P is $laced #etween the weight and the fulcrum as shown in? Since is the middle force3 therefore3 G and R act in the same direction and P in the o$$osite direction? !lso P 4 R %G "r
R4P-G
Thus to lift weight the effort must #e a$$lied u$wards3 the reaction of fulcrum acts downwards or lever $resses fulcrum u$ward? TaBing moments a#out the fulcrum F3 we have3
Out in this lever !F is less than Of3 therefore3 mechanical advantage is less than unity? This shows a mechanical disadvantage? This arrangement gives G a large movements for a small movement of the effort P3 a fact which is Just o$$osite to what ha$$ens in the other two ty$es of levers? The e8am$les of this ty$e of lever are the forearm3 treadle of a sewing machine in BicBing a foot#all and in using a cricBet #at? ! fire tongs3 a $air of force$s used in a weight #o83 the u$$er and lower Jaws of the mouth are e8am$les of dou#le levers of this class? To$ ,7. The heel and A-le
The wheel and a8le is a modification of the lever? It consists of two cylinders of different diameters ca$a#le of turning a#out a common fi8ed a8is? The larger cylinder is called the wheel and the smaller the a8le? The load G to #e raised is attached to a ro$e coiled around the wheel in the o$$osite direction3 so that when the ro$e round the wheel is un-coiled3 the ro$e round the a8le is coiled u$ and there#y the weight is raised? Shows a section where "O is the radius r of the a8le "! the radius R of the wheel? TaBing moments a#out "3 P "! 4 G "#
A//lication
The windlass #y which water is drawn from a well is the same as the wheel and a8le3 the cranB-handle of which serves the $ur$ose of the wheel? The ca$stan used for lifting an anchor in shi$s3 a coffee grinder3 a s$anner used to wind a nut3 the steering of a motor car3 #icycle $edal etc? are all a$$lications of the wheel and a8le? To$ ,8. Screw
The screw is a rod usually of some hard metal on the surface of which is cut a s$iral groove? The successive turns of these grooves are se$arated #y a s$iral ridge Bnown as thread? The screw worBs in a collar or nut through which a hole is #ored3 having a groove to fit the thread to fit groove of the screw? ! screw is generally $rovided with an arm #y means of which it can #e rotated? Ghen the screw turns in a fi8ed nut3 it moves forward or #acBward in the direction of its length? In each turn of the screw3 the distance moved is e

To find the $itch of screw3 count the num#er of grooves or threads in one centimeter and thus calculate $itch as
when the screw worBs without friction?
