What else can I help you with?
You pull down on a rope to raise a flag on a flagpole. Which describes why the rope and the flagpole act as a machine?
The rope and the flagpole act as a machine because they work together to achieve a desired outcome, which is raising the flag. The rope transmits the force you apply by pulling, allowing you to raise the flag on the flagpole.

What simple machines make up a flagpole?
pulley and rope
A rope 32 m long is attached to the top of a flagpole The rope reaches a place on the ground 12 m from the base of the pole How many meters high is the flagpole?
This is your math problem that you are supposed to solve! You are supposed to use the formula, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sums of the squares of the other two sides. What is your hypotenuse? It is the 32 meter long rope. Then the distance from the flagpole to the end of the rope is 12 meters. So if you take the 32 meter hypotenuse and square it. And then you can take the 12 and square it. Then you can subtract the length of the end of the rope out from the flag pole squared from the length of the rope or hypotenuse squared and have the length of the flagpole squared. Now do your math.
What a geometric term that describes a flagpole?
Rectangle
What simple machine is a flagpole rope?
A flagpole rope acts as a simple machine known as a pulley. It allows for the lifting and lowering of the flag with minimal effort by redirecting the force applied to the rope. The pulley system reduces friction and makes it easier to raise or lower the flag, demonstrating the mechanical advantage provided by simple machines.
Is a flag pole is an example of a wheel and axle?
Not really-there are better examples like the rope pulley on a flagpole
How is a flagpole a pulley system?
A flagpole can be considered a simple pulley system because the rope attached to the flag acts as a type of pulley, allowing the flag to be raised and lowered by pulling on the rope. This system demonstrates how pulleys can be used to change the direction of force to make lifting and lowering objects easier.
How to properly hang a flag on a flagpole?
To properly hang a flag on a flagpole, first attach the flag to the halyard rope using the flag's grommets. Raise the flag slowly to the top of the pole, making sure it is fully extended and not tangled. Secure the halyard rope to prevent the flag from coming down.
What is an example of a movable pulley?
An example of a movable pulley is a flagpole. When you pull down on one end of the rope, the pulley at the top of the flagpole moves with the flag, making it easier to raise and lower the flag.
When you raise or lower a flag on a flagpole you are using?
a halyard, which is a rope or line used to hoist or lower the flag. The halyard is typically attached to the flag at one end and is used to control the position of the flag on the flagpole.
What is a rope or tackle used for hoisting or lowering a flag?
A rope or tackle used for hoisting or lowering a flag is commonly referred to as a flag halyard. It is typically attached to a flagpole and allows for the controlled raising and lowering of the flag, ensuring that it can be displayed or taken down safely and efficiently. The halyard may consist of a single rope or a more complex system of pulleys and lines, depending on the height of the flagpole and the design of the flag system.
