Question : 32 of 73
Marks: +1, -0
What effort has to be applied at CC to just raise the load L=20kgfL = 20\,\text{kgf} ?
Solution:  
Given : L=20kgf,E=L = 20\,\text{kgf}, E = ?
In equilibrium,
L=2TL = 2T and EffortE=T\text{Effort} E = T
\therefore Effort needed, E=L2=20kgf2E = \frac{L}{2} = \frac{20\,\text{kgf}}{2}
=10kgf= 10\,\text{kgf}
