A pulley is a force multiplier.
(it swaps force for distance).
The more pulleys and ropes you add the easier it is to lift
When used appropriately, a pulley can be used to reduce the amount of force needed to move an object. By using multiple pulleys, one can change the direction that force needs to be applied to move an object, as well as reducing the amount of force that is necessary through mechanical advantage.

The more pulleys and ropes you add the easier it is to lift
Increasing the number of pulleys divides the force required to lift up a heavy object; increasing the number of pulleys decreases the force needed by the person (or motor) pulling the first end of the pulley system. However, it is important to know that it does not affect the total work needed to lift up the object. As the force is decreased, the distance of rope needed increases to compensate for a conserved amount of work required for the load to be lifted.

A pulley is a wheel with a groove on its edge for holding a rope or cable. pulleys are usally used in sets desinged to reduce the amount or force needed to lift a load.
