I have to take an aptitude test that I have taken before and there are a couple questions that are stumping me.
My first question I want to ask about deals with ropes / strings. It has an old-timey picture of a boy carrying books wrapped up in string and then attached to a stick and thrown over his back. One picture the string/rope is wrapped around the stick more. It ask which is easier to carry, A (the rope is wrapped around twice), or B (the rope is wrapped around five times), or C it's equal.
My first guess is B, but I can't explain why.
So does wrapping the rope more around help distribute the mass anymore to make it easier to carry or?
Thanks!
