Answer:force required to lift the load = 500N
Explanation:
Mechanical advantage for a lever is given by the formulae
= force output/force input
or
Mechanical Advantage = Load / Effort
where
Force output / Load= 800 N
mechanical advantage = 1.6
Force input / Effort =??
Force input= Force output /Mechanical advantage
= 800N / 1.6
=500N
OR
Effort = Load/ Mechanical Advantage = 800/ 1.6 = 500N
