Answer the following in detail.
How does a pulley make work simpler?
Differentiate between a single fixed pulley and a single movable pulley.
The diagram below shows an arrangement of three pulleys A, B, and C. The load is marked as L and the effort as E.
- Name the Pulleys A, B, and C.
- Mark in the diagram the directions of load (L), effort (E) and tension T1 and T2 in the two strings.
- How are the magnitudes of L and E related to the tension T1?
- Calculate the mechanical advantage and velocity ratio of the arrangement.
- What assumptions have you made in parts (c) and (d)?

What is a block and tackle system of pulleys?
Write two uses of pulleys. Is pulley a force multiplier?
There is no gain in mechanical advantage in the case of a single fixed pulley. Explain, why the pulley is then used?
In the case of a block and tackle arrangement, the mechanical advantage increases with the number of pulleys. Explain.
What is a block and tackle system of pulleys? What precautions would you observe while rounding the string so that the effort is applied in the downward direction?
A ‘block and tackle’ system used 3 pulleys in the lower block and 4 pulleys in the upper block. What is the ‘velocity ratio’ of this system? If the load is to be lifted by a person capable of applying a maximum effort of 1000 N, what is the maximum load than can be lifted under ideal conditions?
The actual maximum load that gets lifted turns out to be 6300 N. What are the values of the actual M.A. and efficiency of the set-up?
