Is a block and tackle a wheel and axle?
No, a block and tackle is not considered a wheel and axle system. It is considered a type of pulley system.

How many parts to a block and tackle before you lose mechanical advantage?
The answer depends on the quality of the components used. It also depends on whether you use a simple system with just 2 blocks, or use a cascaded system where the output of one block and tackle feeds the input to another. The only other answer I can give is "it's fewer than you think".
When was the pulley invented?
The block and tackle (or pulley system) was brought to us by Archimedes (287BC - 212BC) in Greece, but neither Archimedes, nor any who wrote about him and his extraordinary work dated the invention.stupid answer
How do you find the mechanical advantage of a simple machine?
To find the mechanical advantage of a simple machine divide output force by input force. (input force is the force that we exert on a machine, and output force is the force that is exerted by a machine).
What is the Block and tackle formula?
The mechanical advantage of a block and tackle system is calculated by counting the number of ropes supporting the weight being lifted. The formula for mechanical advantage in a block and tackle system is equal to the number of ropes supporting the load. For example, if a block and tackle system has 4 ropes supporting the load, then the mechanical advantage is 4. This means that the system can lift a load 4 times heavier than the input force applied.
How does pulleys work?
Pulleys can multiply the force you apply. Example: I pull down on a pulley with TWO Pulleys THREE supporting Strands and the force is Multiplied by a factor of TWO, but you have to pull TWICE the length of Rope as the Distance the Object is Raised. Therefore you can LIFT more WEIGHT than you normally could.The relationship of Supporting Strands to the Force Multiplier is:(the number of Supporting Strands) - 1So a Pulley system with 5 Supporting Strands with Multiply YOUR input Force by 4 times. This type of System is referred to as "Block and Tackle".
How much force do you need to lift a 100 newton object with a block and tackle system with 4 supporting strings?
With a block and tackle system using 4 supporting strings, the force needed to lift a 100 newton object would be 25 newtons. This is calculated by dividing the weight of the object (100 N) by the number of supporting strings (4).
Does a block and tackle has a mechanical advantage of 4?
No, a block and tackle system can have a mechanical advantage greater than 4, depending on the number of pulleys used in the system. The mechanical advantage of a block and tackle is calculated by dividing the number of sections of rope supporting the load by the number of sections of rope that you pull on.

Mechanical advantage of the block and tackle?
A block and tackle system provides a mechanical advantage by using multiple pulleys to distribute the load over several segments of rope. The mechanical advantage is equal to the number of supporting ropes, which decreases the amount of force required to lift a heavy object. This allows for easier lifting of heavy loads by applying less force over a longer distance.
Why did people start calling the fishing tool a tackle?
No one calls any fishing tool "a tackle." Tackle (from the verb to take) means the gear or equipment used in certain sports and activities.
What is a block and tackle?
A block and tackle is a system of two or more pulleys each enclosed by a housing with a rope or cable threaded between them.
What is a block and what is a tackle?
A block and tackle is a system of two or more pulleys each enclosed by a housing with a rope or cable threaded between them.
What is the ima of a block and tackle?
The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) of a block and tackle system is determined by the number of rope segments supporting the load. It can be calculated by counting the number of ropes that lead from the load to the fixed point of the pulley system. For example, if there are four rope segments, the IMA would be 4, meaning the effort required to lift the load is reduced by a factor of four. However, real-world factors such as friction can affect the actual mechanical advantage achieved.
