| View Cart ⇗ | Info
“In the single moveable pulley, the same rope passes from the fixed point, A, to the power, P. It is evident here, that the weight, W, ten pounds, five pounds will be supported by one string, and five by the other. The power will then support twice its own weight.” -Comstock 1850
