A weight of 1000 N can be lifted by an effort of 100 N. If the velocity ratio is 20, then find the Mechanical Advantage and Efficiency.
If a system is in equilibrium and its position depends on many independent variables, the principle of virtual work states that the partial derivatives of its total potential energy with respect to each independent variable must be
A helical spring has N turns of coil with diameter D, and a second spring, made of the same wire and material, has N/2 turns of coil with diameter 2D. If the stiffness of the first spring is k, then the stiffness of the second spring will be:
If an external force is also applied on the distributed loading, then what happens?
