How are a fixed pulley and a movablepulleydiffrent?
Using a movable pulley is known as using it to 'advantage'. The line going to the movable pulley contributes towards the force acting on the load. A line going to a fixed pulley, only serves to change the direction of the force.
What kind of pulley has an ideal mechanical advantage of 2?
The kind of pulley has an ideal machanical advantage of 2 is called "Movable Pulley". From, Bryan Hollick
How does the different type of pulley system affect the mechanical advantage?
Depending on the type of pulley system you have (Fixed/ movable/ combined pulley) using either of these will give you mechanical advantage. The different pulley types are designed to even the weight of the object your pulled out, this will enable you to lift heavier objects with a lighter pull
What is the advantage of a moveable pulley?
A single movable pulley gives you a 2:1 mechanical advantage. You can lift move 20 pounds with only 10 pounds of effort.
What is the function of a movable pulley?
functions of movable pulley

What is the mechanical advantage of a movable pully?
for one movable pulley you would get a mechanical advantage of 2
What is the advantage of a movable pulley system?
hanika
How do you calculate the mechanical advantage of a movable pulley?
use calculator

How is a fixed pulley different from a movable pulley?
A fixed pulley is different from a movable pulley because a movable pulley has one end of the rope attached to it fixed on an unmoving object. The pulley is free to move with the rope. You pull the other end of the rope. Also, a movable pulley multiplies the applied force (effort force) and therefore has more mechanical advantage. A fixed pulley is attached to something that doesn't move, while one end of the rope is holding the weight, while the other is for pulling.A fixed pulley confers no mechanical advantage, but will convert motion in one direction into another direction.A movable pulley system, if the pulleys change their distance from each other, will confer a mechanical advantage.
Why is mechanical advantage of single fixed pulley less than single movable pulley?
because lifes hard

How is the mechanical advantage o a movable pulley determined?
I do believe it is equal to the number of ropes you have.

What is the function of a movable pulley?
functions of movable pulley
How can a fixed pulley and movable pulley be put together?
With the string from the movable pulley
