Questions Related to a little effort, lot of work

Which part of the lever supplies the force to move something?

  1. fulcrum

  2. load

  3. effort

  4. all of the above


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

A force which is applied at one point on the lever in order to move an object is called $effort$ force. 

Hence option $C$ is correct.

  1. Hard disk drive

  2. Solid-state drive

  3. Magnetic tape drive

  4. All of these


Correct Option: B

  1. Multiplying force

  2. Multiplying speed

  3. Applying force at a convenient point

  4. Applying force in a convenient direction


Correct Option: A,B,C,D

Which of the following is a simple machine?

  1. Car

  2. Lever

  3. Computer

  4. Air conditioner


Correct Option: B

If a machine is lubricated with oil

  1. The mechanical advantage of the machine increases

  2. the mechanical effciency of the machine increases

  3. both its mechanical advantage and efficiency increase

  4. its efficiency increses, but its mechanical advantage decreases.


Correct Option: A

In an ideal mechanical the output energy is :

  1. more than input energy

  2. equal to input energy

  3. less than input energy

  4. infinite compared to input energy


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Ideal machine. The term ideal machine refers to a hypothetical mechanical system in which energy and power are not lost or dissipated through friction, deformation, wear, or other inefficiencies.The mechanical efficiency of a simple machine is calculated by dividing the actual power output by the ideal power output.

  2. object will be lifted up by half the distance between two successive threads

  3. object will be lifted up by twice the distance between two successive threads

  4. none of the above


Correct Option: A
