The figure below shows a wheel barrow of mass 15 kg carrying a load of 30kgf with its centre of gravity at A. The points B and C are the centre of wheel and tip of the handle such that the horizontal distance AB= 20 cm and Ac = 40 cm. Find : (a) the load arm, (b) the effort arm, (c) the mechanical advantage, and (d) the minimum effort required to keep the leg just off the ground.
