How does a spring pulley system work?

A spring pulley system works by using a spring to provide tension on the pulley system. When a force is applied to the system, the spring stretches, storing potential energy. This potential energy is then released, helping to move the load connected to the pulley. The spring tension assists in lifting or lowering the load with less effort.


How does a movable pulley make work easier?

A fixed pulley is the only pulley that when used individually, uses more effort than the load to lift the load from the ground. The fixed pulley when attached to an unmovable object e.g. a ceiling or wall, acts as a first class lever with the fulcrum being located at the axis but with a minor change, the bar becomes a rope. The advantage of the fixed pulley is that you do not have to pull or push the pulley up and down. The disadvantage is that you have to apply more effort than the load
