In which direction the force need be applied, when a single pulley is used with a mechanical advantage greater than 1? How can you change the direction of force applied without altering its mechanical advantage? Draw a labelled diagram of the system.

Solutions:

It is necessary to apply the force in an upward direction.
The direction of the applied force can be altered without affecting its mechanical advantage

by utilising a single moveable pulley in conjunction with a fixed pulley.
