Do the moveable pulley decreases the input force?
The answer will depend on the configuration of the rope as it goes around the movable pulley and the fixed roller.
Depends what the input force is and the mechanical advantage of the pulley system If effort force (input force) is 20 pounds in a 6 pulley system (3 fixed,3 movable) then load force (output force) is 120 pounds As 6 times 20 equals 120 pounds
A single pulley alters the direction of the input but confers no mechanical advantage.

Because the mechanical advatage of a movable pulley is always two you multipy the input force times two. So 50 * 2 = 100N

True
11,000/20=550newtons
11,000/20=550newtons
11,000/20=550newtons
Yes. The IMA of a movable pulley is 2.
