A winch is driven by a 4.0 kW electric motor and is lifting a load of 400 kg to a height of 5.0 m. If the lifting operation takes 8.6 s, calculate the overall efficiency of the winch and the motor system. (State the answer as a %)
A pulley system made up of 3 pulleys, is used to lift a load of 10kg through a height of 50cm. If the effort required is 2.5 kgf, find the height moved by the effort and the efficiency.
A 2 meter high inclined plane with a length of 10 meters allows you to move a box that weighs 750 newtons with a force of 187.5 newtons.  Calculate the efficiency of the inclined plane.
