How Do You Calculate Work Input In A Pulley?
Every natural event has an equation to determine its outcome. When two objects come together to produce work, the energy generated by one object may need to be multiplied to affect the other. Pulley systems multiply force. Work creates force, and though force may be multiplied by the use of pulleys, the amount of work input remains the same. To calculate work input in a single pulley or a system of pulleys, you must learn the equations that determine the outcome of these laws of relativity, and how gravity, energy, and force affect our physical world. Set up a single pulley system where the pulley is secured to the overhead support and the cord is run over the top. Create a loop at one end of the cord where the scale can be inserted into the opening and then pulled, once a mass is attached to the other end. Write down the law of work input and work output. In a pulley system without friction, work input equals work output: Work (in) = Work (out). Attach a known mass to the other end of
