Daily engineering puzzle
Tolerance
One mechanism a day: a gear train, a lever, a pulley block, a screw jack and more, drawn with its numbers. You get six guesses at the output. Each one comes back Higher, Lower or Within 5%.
A new puzzle every day at midnight, London time. Everything is ideal: no friction, no slip, g is 9.81. Practice gives you a random one whenever you like.
