The 16 pages that link to Pulley, each with the reason it gives.

• LeverCompared with: Unlike a rigid bar pivoting at a fulcrum, it works through a tensioned line.

• Mechanical advantageBroader topic: In a block and tackle, the number of supporting rope segments sets ideal force multiplication.

• Inclined planeCompared with: A pulley system can raise loads without requiring a sloping travel path.

• Free-body diagramBroader topic: Separate diagrams for connected masses clarify tension and constraint relations.

• CounterweightRelated: Pulleys connect counterweights to moving loads while redirecting the supporting cable.

• FulcrumCompared with: A pulley can provide mechanical advantage through a wheel and rope rather than a lever pivot.

• Tension (physics)Related: An ideal pulley redirects a connector and preserves tension magnitude across it.

• WinchCompared with: A pulley guides or redirects a line; a winch actively winds it onto a drum.

• Hero of AlexandriaRelated: Hero analyzed pulley systems as practical machines for lifting heavy loads.

• Tool (implement)Broader topic: Some hand-operated implements use pulleys to lift or tension materials.

• Wheel and axleCompared with: A pulley also uses a rotating wheel, but its rope and support define the force trade.

• CapstanRelated: Both devices guide lines, but a capstan actively drives rope through friction.

• Simple machineBroader topic: A fixed pulley redirects force; a movable pulley can also multiply it.

• Domenico FontanaRelated: A system of pulleys distributed the load during the obelisk’s erection.

• Lifting equipmentRelated: Rope-and-pulley arrangements redirect force and can reduce the effort needed to lift a load.

• ShadoofCompared with: Unlike a pulley, a shadoof lifts its bucket by rotating a weighted beam.
