10. A lifting machine consist of pulley arranged in third order system. There are three pulleys in
the system. A load of 1000N is lifted by an effort of 180N is lifted by an effort of 180N. Find
the efficiency of the machine and the effort lost in friction.
11. Locate the centroid of the I-Section shown in figure
12. A body resting a rough horizontal plane. Requires a pull of 180N inclined at an angle of 30°
The plane, just to move the body. Determine the weight of the body and Co-efficient of
friction.
13. Determine the centroid of a triangle from First principle.
Answer any two (2 X 10 = 20)
14. A body of weight 40 KN rest on a limiting equilibrium on a rough plane whose slope is 30°.
The plane is raised to a slope of 600, what force applied to the body parallel to the inclined
plane will support the body on the plane.

16. In a lifting machine, an effort of 100KN is required to lift a load of 900KN. It is found that the
effort has to move through a distance of 75cm, while the load is lifted through a height of
3cm. Find
a. Work done in lifting the load through 0.5m.
b. Distance moved by effort when the load is lifted through 0.5m.
c. Work done by effort in lifting the load through 0.5m.
d. Effort required to lift the load if the machine were frictionless.
e. Effort lost in friction.
