What type of pulley would increase the output force?

A pulley system that has multiple pulleys in line with each one having its output drive the next will increase the force. This would be called a tackle pulley.


How do you loosen a serpentine belt on a Lincoln LS?

as new as the car is it would have a belt tensioner pulley...its a pulley with a spring loaded pulley to self tightn the belt...if u take the right size of socket for at the pulley and turn the pulley down...but not by unscewing the bolt at the pulley...by using the bolt as something the to hang on to the pulley so when u turn it the pulley will retract and losen the belt to take off...very easy but takes some muscle....if it doesnt have a belt tensioner pulley it would be the alternater that will have to be moved so the belt losens....if that's the case have when u put the new belt on you have to make sure the belt is tight enogh or to tight....the belt will have play in it but with strong applided movement...also the serpentine belt doesnt have to be timed


What is the mechanical advantage of the pulley system If you pull the rope in a pulley system 6 metres to lift a load 2 metres?

The mechanical advantage of the pulley system in this case would be 3. This is calculated by dividing the distance the rope is pulled (6m) by the distance the load is lifted (2m).


1 pulley system more efficient then a 2 pulley system?

Efficiency is the proportion of energy usefully used. Using a pulley system does not use less energy it just changes the ammount of force. Pulleys do have a small ammount of friction so having just one pulley would be more efficient. (but not much more)


How much force is used to move 100pds on a 2 pulley system?

In a 2-pulley system, the force required to move a 100-pound object would be halved. Therefore, the force needed would be 50 pounds. This is because the weight is distributed between the two sides of the pulley system, reducing the amount of force required to move the object.

How conveyor belt head pulley works?

A Conveyor belt's head pulley is also known as the drive pulley, its on this end of a conveyor system where the motorized pulley is installed. At this point the conveyed material is discharged "wherever" and the belt wraps around and begins its return cycle. The head pulley is at the discharge so that the conveyed material is "pulled" through the system vs. having the tail pulley motorized which would be forcing the system to "push" the belt containing the conveyed material.


What are some advantages of using gears and a chain system on a bicycle instead of a pulley system?

Chains mesh with sprockets without slipping. A pulley system would need to use higher tension(and suffer higher losses) to avoid slipping.


How would you describe a single pulley system?

A single pulley system consists of a wheel with a groove and a rope, allowing a force to be applied to lift or move an object. It changes the direction of the force applied, making it easier to lift heavy loads by distributing the force needed to lift the object.

What force is required to lift a 50-N load with this pulley system?

If the pulley system has a mechanical advantage of 3, then the force required to lift the 50N load would be 50N divided by 3, which equals 16.67N.
