no it does not,it has no mechanical advantage whatsoever. It is just an advantage because it goes in the opposite direction in which you pull.

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.


How does a fixed pulley affect the input force?

A fixed pulley changes the direction of the force applied, but does not change the amount of force required to move the load. It allows the force to be applied downward, making it easier to lift a heavy object by pulling down instead of lifting up.


A fixed pulley changes what force?

A fixed pulley changes the direction of the input force without changing its magnitude. It can make it easier to lift or move an object by allowing the force to be applied in a more convenient direction.


What is the mechanical advantage of a single fixed pulley?

Thew pulley changes the direction of the effort force.


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.

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.


What type of pulley can you use to change the direction of the effort force?

Fixed Pulley and Compound Pulley.


Unlike a fixed pulley a movable pulley multiplies the input force?

True


How are a fixed pulley and a movablepulleydiffrent?

Using a movable pulley is known as using it to 'advantage'. The line going to the movable pulley contributes towards the force acting on the load. A line going to a fixed pulley, only serves to change the direction of the force.
