About the pulley block and tackle with a hook and rope

A pulley is a wheel with a groove around its edge that a rope or cable runs over. Pulling one end of the rope lets you lift a heavy load on the other end far more easily. Using several pulleys together makes lifting easier still, which is why cranes are full of them. Use it in a simple-machines lesson, tracing the path over the wheel and down the rope.

  • A pulley is a grooved wheel that a rope or cable runs over.
  • Pulleys make it easier to lift heavy loads.
  • A pulley can also change the direction of a pull.
