          77.  In the figure shown, the pulley system consists of a
              fixed  block  and  a  movable  block.  The  theoretical
              mechanical advantage is

          78. A  single  movable  block  is  being  used  in  the  figure
              shown below. The person is lifting a 200-pound cask   80. The figure above shows a worm and gear. If the worm
              with  approximately  how  great  a  pull  (disregard   rotates slowly on its shaft, the gear will
