What do pulleys do to the direction of a force?

If you have a pulley, it will make lifting an object up easier. since it is easier for someone to pull something down then pick up, a pulley is made to pull the object up, in a way where you only have to pull down. (Because that's easier) for example, if your friend tries to life you off the ground, that is a lot harder. but, if you put a rope over a branch, hold on to one end, and have your friend pull the rope down or away from you, which will raise you up, it is a lot easier, and more convenient

Why is it easier to pull down on a rope over a pulley than to pull down on a rope thrown over a wood beam?

A pulley is a wheel and axel which reduces the friction created by a cable being pulled across it, a rope over a wood beam would have increased friction, making it more difficult to pull. Numerous pulleys would reduce the amount of tension force required to move a load, making it easier to pull.


Does the pulley size make a difference?

no. the size of a pully makes little difference to its action on a rope as the only thing changing is how much of the rope is in contact with the pully and since the pully rotates it makes it no easier or harder to pull the rope.


Is it easier to pull when the load is closer or further away?

If you are simply pulling an object with a rope, say, such that the rope is parallel to the surface over which you are pulling then, ideally, the distance between you and the object should make no difference.

Why is it easier to pull than to push?

Whether it's easier to pull than to push depends on the circumstances, there is no universal principle here. If you're using the pulley suspended above you can add your weight to your arms force and thus amplify your effort(pushing a rope doesn't produce any result of course). If you were to move a heavy stone block it might be easier to push it, if there's no grip possible to pull.
