Best Answer

The amount of force required to lift a weight is inversely proportional to the number of suspension lines. A multiple pulley system allows the load to be distributed across several lines and greatly reduces the amount of force required to lift the weight..

The load that takes mechanical power to lift with a single pulley can be lifted by a single person with a multiple pulley set-up

In physics, a double pulley can be used to change the direction of a force, increase the mechanical advantage of a system (allowing for easier lifting of heavy objects), or to distribute the force over multiple ropes to reduce friction and wear. Double pulleys are commonly used in systems like block and tackle arrangements to lift heavy loads with less effort.

What is double pulley system?

A double pulley system is simple. Instead of one wheel like the single pulley system has, the double pulley system has two wheels and carries more heavier loads than the single pulley system can hold.

How are the double pulley systems different?

Double pulley systems are different from the one pulley system because the weight is now attacked to a pulley instead of an anchor. Another pulley is used to take some of the weight. A two pulley system only requires half the effort as a single pulley system.

What is a chain hoist pulley original name in GCSE O level physics 50 years ago?

Hi, I would like to know the real/original name of the 'chain hoist/pulley' I was taught 50 years ago when of doing O levels physics. I guess it was the inventor's name. Obviously we can still buy them but they only call them a chain hoist or pulley. thks john 23.11.10
