Best Answer

A fixed pulley is a pulley that is attached to a structure and does not move;changes the direction of the effort force used to life a load by a person or a spring scale and if you use a spring scale then you will need a person to pull the spring scale done to see how far she/he pull it

A moveable pulley is a pulley that supports the load and is not fixed in place;reduces the amount of effort force needed to pull to lift the load when she/he pulls the spring scale then it will tell she/he pulls it.

Fixed pulleys have their center point fixed. i.e. they can only have rotary motion and no linear movement. Movable pulleys do not have their center point fixed, and are free to have translatory as well as rotary motion

A movable pulley is a pulley that is free to move up and down, and is attached to a ceiling or other object by two lengths of the same rope. Examples of movable pulleys include construction cranes, modern elevators, and some types of weight lifting machines at the gym.

A moving pulley is a wheel on an axle designed to support movement without a center point being fixed. A fixed position pulley does not change positions and rotates only in one direction.
