Chapter No. 01 Simple Machines C203.1 Calculate Mechanical advantage, Velocity ratio and efficiency of various simple Machines.
Basic Concepts Load (W) Effort (P) Mechanical Advantage (M.A.) = = Velocity Ratio (V.R.) = Efficiency = x 100
Losses (Effort and Load) Ideal Effort (Pi) = Effort lost in friction (Pf) = P-Pi Ideal Load (Wi) = PxV.R. Load lost in friction (Wf ) = Wi - W
Law of Machine Effort (P) Equation Of straight Line P = mW + C P = Effort required to lift load m = slope of line W = Load lifted by the machine C = Effort required to start the Machine C Load (W)
Simple axle and Wheel Velocity Ratio =
Differential Axle and Wheel Velocity Ratio =

Double Purchase Crab Winch Velocity Ratio =
Worm and Worm-Wheel Velocity Ratio =
Simple Screw Jack P Velocity Ratio =
