Homework Statement
1962N Load 5 m from effort (hydraulic ram) and fulcrum 1m from effort.
Calculate the Velocity ratio, if work input is 3000j calculate work output.
Homework Equations
VR = distance moved by effort / distance moved by load
effort = 11772N
MA = load / effort = 0.17
The Attempt at a Solution
Now i thought this would be 1 / 6 = 0.16 However this doesn't really truly reflect the distances moved by either effort or load. So would it be correct to assume that I need to use trigonometry to work this problem out and give me correct hights etc.
any help would be very much appreciated
