A passage reports that a pulley system with one support rope required 80 N to lift a load, while a system with four support ropes required 22 N. It gives no mechanical advantage rule. Which statement combines passage and background knowledge?
A
The four-rope system required less effort because the load was shared among more supporting rope segments.
B
The one-rope system required 80 N, for the specific setup, variables, and limits stated in the item.
C
The four-rope system required less force than the one-rope system, when the displayed data and experimental conditions are considered.
D
Both systems were used to lift a load, within the range and context provided by the passage, and using the measurements, labels, and constraints given in the prompt.
