Question:
Two persons use a large winch to raise a mass of 470 kg. The radius of the wheel is 48 cm and the radius of the axle is 4.0 cm.
(a) What force is required to lift the load?
(b) Find the MA of the windlass.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
