In a fixed pulley the effort force is equal to the?

In a fixed pulley, the effort force is equal to the load force being lifted. The fixed pulley changes the direction of the force applied, but does not provide any mechanical advantage in terms of reducing the amount of effort needed to lift the load.


What is the difference between a fixed pulley and movable pulley?

The difference between a fixed pulley and a movable pulley is, the wheel of a fixed pulley does not move because the wheel is attached to a wall, ceiling, or other object. Unlike a fixed pulley, a movable pulley's wheel does move. The wheel on a movable pulley is not attached to a wall or other object. A fixed pulley changes work by changing the direction of a force. A movable pulley changes work by reducing the input force needed to lift heavy objects. A movable pulley changes the direction of the input force and reduced it. A movable pulley also increases the output force.


Is a well a fixed pulley or a movable pulley?

A well is a fixed pulley. It changes the direction of the force applied to lift a bucket of water, but it does not move itself.


What kind of pulley changes the direction of input force but does not change amount of force you apply?

A single pulley alters the direction of the input but confers no mechanical advantage.


What is the mechanical advantage of a single fixed pulley?

Thew pulley changes the direction of the effort force.


What type of pulley changes the direction of the input force but does not change the amount of force you apply?

A fixed pulley changes the direction of the input force without changing the amount of force applied. It is attached to a fixed point and does not move, simply redirecting the force in a different direction.


What are the differences between a fixed pulley and a moving pulley and how do each of them change work?

The difference between a fixed pulley and a movable pulley is, the wheel of a fixed pulley does not move because the wheel is attached to a wall, ceiling, or other object. Unlike a fixed pulley, a movable pulley's wheel does move. The wheel on a movable pulley is not attached to a wall or other object. A fixed pulley changes work by changing the direction of a force. A movable pulley changes work by reducing the input force needed to lift heavy objects. A movable pulley changes the direction of the input force and reduced it. A movable pulley also increases the output force.


How does the resistance force relate to the effort force for the fixed pulley alone?

In a fixed pulley, the resistance force is equal to the effort force when neglecting friction. This means that the input force required to lift a load is the same as the output force exerted by the load. The fixed pulley changes the direction of the force but does not provide any mechanical advantage.
