(a) Plot a graph of effort against load. Using the graph determine the law of the machine.

(b) Plot a graph of mechanical advantage against load.

(c) Plot a graph of efficiency against load and state whether the machine is likely to overhaul.

(d) Evaluate the theoretical limiting values of mechanical advantage and efficiency and explain whether your graphs tend towards these values.

(e) Calculate the work input and the work done against friction when raising the 10 kN load through a height of 50 mm.
