Question

Determine laws of machines

Answer 1

Answer:

Machines which are used to lift a load are governed by the "Law of machines", which states that the effort to be applied on the machine (p) is related to the weight (w) which it can lift as - p = mw + c Where m and c are positive constants which are characteristics of the machine

Answer 2

Answer:

The law of the machine is the relationship between the load lifted (W) and the effort applied (P).

Explanation:

The relationship between the load lifted (W) and the effort applied can be characterized as the law of machine (P).

The law of machine is given by the relation $P = mW + C$

Where,

P is the effort applied

W is the load lifted

m is a constant, which is equal to the slope of the line

and C is another constant, which represents the mechanical friction.
