What if a pulley has a mechanical advantage of 1?
A pulley can either change the direction or the force, but not both. Since a single fixed pulley makes an object go up when pulled down, it has changed direction. So it can't also change force.
What type of pulley can you use to change the direction of the effort force?

yes
What is the mechanical advantage of a fixed and free pulley?
A fixed pulley does NOT multiply the effort force or have a mechanical advantage. It only changes the direction of the effort force. A free pulley multiplies the effort by two. this means the free pulley has a mechanical advantage of 2.information from:www.mhscience02.com

Can anyone tell you how can a Single fixed pulley system has MA 2 needed urgently?
One single fixed pulley cannot give any mechanical advantage. It can only redirect the direction of the applied force.
What is the mechanical advantage of single fixed single movable pulley system?
The mechanical advantage would be 1 because the force required to life the mass of an object becomes 1/2 the original weight of the object.
