A. IMA: 4
The Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) is given by:
where
is the input distance
is the output distance
For the pulley system in this problem, and
, so the IMA is
B. MA: 3.59
The actual mechanical advantage (AMA), or simply the Mechanical Advantage (MA), is given by
where is the output force and
is the input force. For the pulley system in this problem,
and
, so the MA is
C. Efficiency: 89.8 %
The efficiency of a machine is equal to the ratio between the MA and the AMA:
Therefore, in this case,
By the definition of wavelength, the answer is the letter D, the wavelength would decrease.
We can see in the diagram a wave motion.
A wave has some characteristics:
- Has an amplitude, the distance from 0 to the crest (highest point in the y-direction, point (3) in the figure) it would see in the figure as (2)
- Has wavelength, the distance between the crests.
- Has a trough, the lowest point in the y-direction.
Now, if we increase the distance of the crests, by the definition shown above, we will increase the wavelength.
Therefore, the answer is letter D, the wavelength would increase.
