Answer 1

The force advantage of the direction changing pulley shown  is 1. The correct option is b.

What is force advantage?

Force is the mechanical physical quantity. The force advantage is equivalent to the mechanical advantage equal to the ratio of output to the input force.

In the single fixed pulley, there is only one rope segment that pulls up on the load, so,

The force advantage is

F.A = 50 N / 50 N  = 1

Thus, the force advantage of the direction changing pulley shown  is 1. The correct option is b.
