No. A fulcrum is the pivot point of a lever.
No, a fulcrum is the pivot point for a lever
a pulley because it could carry heavy stuff
No, a bar on a fulcrum is not a pulley. A pulley is a wheel with a groove used to change the direction of a force, while a fulcrum is a fixed point around which a lever pivots. Both are simple machines, but they serve different purposes and have different mechanisms.
The input arm is the distance between the input force and the fulcrum. The output arm is the distance between the output force and the fulcrum. The fulcrum is the fixed point around which the pulley rotates.
The point on a pulley where it pivots is called the axle or the shaft. It serves as the point of rotation for the pulley system.
No, a fulcrum is the pivot point for a lever
A pulley has an axle or pivot just like a lever has a fulcrum. Just as a lever tilts across a fulcrum and the fulcrum bears all the weight, a pulley rotates around its pivot/axle the same way. So in essence, a pulley is a lever wrapped into a wheel, with its fulcrum in the center.

A single pulley
A pulley has an axle or pivot just like a lever has a fulcrum. Just as a lever tilts across a fulcrum and the fulcrum bears all the weight, a pulley rotates around its pivot/axle the same way. So in essence, a pulley is a lever wrapped into a wheel, with its fulcrum in the center.
The load arm is the radius of the pulley. This is the distance from the fulcrum to the load-carrying side of the rope.
effort arm
The part of a pulley where the rope lies is called the groove or the sheave. This is the part of the pulley that provides the surface for the rope to run along while the pulley rotates.
Fulcrum is part of a lever.
