What are fixed pulleys and moveable pulleys?

Answer:

A Fixed Pulley and a moveable pulley?


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
That is what fixed and moveable pulleys are. :)
