Yo! I wish I had seen this video during my 12th standard.. All those pulley problems made me pull my hair so bad.... But this experiment makes it so clear. Well done man! Awesome! I am glad I watched your video. May you make more videos! Thank you!
Thanks for saying this. This is the topic that got me diffident in physics. Clearly, it was due to lack if illustrations like this. I was lost in thoughts wondering how the drawing on the board practically works and I lost the whole idea on how it makes things easier. God bless Sir for sharing.
My 5 grader loves it! Thanks
Weel and axle
Love
Well I saw this in my 10th std..I'm lucky 😅
This is by far the best pulley explanation video.
He didnt even explain anything
there is a mistake
@@Son96601 seriously
This is a fantastic demonstration that I am sharing with my students, since we can't do it in class due to distance learning. As a physics teacher I do want to nitpick that this isn't making the "work" easier, because work has a specifc meaning in Physics of Force times Distance. *W= Fd* In plain old English, yes, we can say it's making the work easier, but no machine or device can reduce the amount of work it takes to do something, as that would break the first law of thermodynamics. Breaking the laws of Physics is strictly forbidden in my house (and universe). Thanks for the great demo!
so why does it take less force to pull the weight attached in the pully can you please explain it to me??
@@shouryaupadhyaya2036 it's because in the 2nd one, the tension is getting applied from both left and right side whereas in the first one tension was only coming from 1 place which was applied by us
@@shouryaupadhyaya2036 because work = force x distance, if you exert a smaller force over a longer distance, it will be equal to the work done when you exert a large force over shorter distance. With hydraulic systems or pulleys, the output distance is longer than the input distance.
THANK YOU. Very good presentation!
I love the way of demonstrating the things easier and faster. I swear couldn't understand it better from anyone else.

Great, very well demonstrated..thinking of buying a block and tackle for my stairwell to help taking stuff up & down stairs....
Thank you so much for this video, I thought hanging a canoe from my garage rafters would be simple...nope. This helped tremendously, I was so happy when I gave that first pull and it finally worked. Again thank you so much for making this.😊
Great vid love the enthusiasm
Great video.
The only thing I would love for you to add is the relationship between the number of ropes that are suspending the mass, and the reduction in force needed to lift it. In the first example (fixed pulley) the mass is suspended by only 1 rope, so their is no mechanical advantage. In the second example (single moveable pulley) the mass is then suspended by 2 ropes, which halves the amount of for needed. The final example (two fixed, one moveable pulley), there are 3 ropes supporting the mass - meaning one third of the amount of force needed.
It would also be handy to add that the trade off for reduced for is a great amount of rope needing to be pulled out to see the same change in height. The amount of rope needed to be pulled is simply a direct multiple of the number of supporting ropes mentioned above. (ie. 3 supporting ropes = 3 times the amount of rope needed to be pulled out).
Also there could be a distinction between a _force_ and a _mass._
Jarrod: Your explanation is WAY better than what's in the video.
Nice explaination
This comment has made me understand more than anything else I have seen
@@sonofjimmyray I'm glad it helped. :) I wish I'd proofed it before posting it though! It's not written well. :)
very nice presentation im on online class now in my engineering dynamics i reviewing i am confuse on some pulley problem especially when the string is fix at bottom now i understand thank you very much
Very well explained. Thank you so much.

Wow! Such an amazing demonstration. My book just came to life ❤️.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@funsciencedemos :)
Thank you so much for this! I will show this to my students to help them in class.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent demonstrations
I recently purchased a pulley system to hang a bug repellent canister from the eaves of my house. The pulleys are great little gizmos, but having never rigged a pulley system before, I needed instructions, and there were none. I scoured the Internet and RUclips to find a simple video that explains how to rig two pulleys, and I finally found funsciencedemos, and low and behold, I now know how to rig a pulley system. Thanks Jared. Now, I need to find a good RUclips video that explains how to tie knots that won't come undone.
😑
Great work dude
I was struggling with this in physics but this made it easy
Thanks
Glad to hear that! Check out our channel for more physics demonstrations :)
AWESOME! Understandable
Very informative its makes pulleys more understandable for me! Thanks for the video!
we are so glad to help!
hi, where can I purchase pulleys, spring scale, etc similar to what you used here? great video btw

This is by far the best pulley explanation video.
wow this is really informational. im gonna add some of this information on my work
I'm in 10th grade and this helps me so much... Thank you!
I can imagine kids ripping on this video but I'm sitting here as an adult trying to apply it to real life lmao yea.
Great video, very clear to follow.
We love to hear that! Don't forget to subscribe and tell your friends and co workers about us!
Ok thank you so much for the follow I love you
sorry i can`t so sorry but your amazing
thank you sir
Thank You So Much this helped me with my study!!!!
This is awesome. I just wish you could explain the difference between the first example and the second example better. Why does one pulley at the top make such a big difference then the pulley attached to the weight?
Thank you 🙏 sir your explanation is excellent
Where did you get those pulleys?
It's so easy!!!!......
The explanation made my life easier like the pulley......this is an awesome video.....
Thank You...Great video...
block & tackle pulley! no kidding i'm a science newbie but you helped a veteran amateur digger out big time

These kind of videos make learning science far more interesting than the science 📚 books do. Thank you funsciencedemos....
Glad you enjoyed it!
Archimedes used a system with three pulleys that accomplishes the same reduction in force as a block and tackle with six pulleys. As your example of where you connected the first pulley showed a difference in force, the arrangement of three times that same principle helps more. Three pulleys in a row, connected to the cross bar, from the cross bar through the first pulley then connected to the bottom of the next pulley. Repeat three times then through through a fourth hanging from the cross bar the the source of pull. Either a person or a winch.
Your video is so informational!
thanks for your effort

goooooood! I think it is very fantastic!
thnx...it really helped me..
In case of a simple pully, you can use your own weight as force, hence, it makes work easier.
In case of a moveable pulley, it really does half the required force because the other half is handled by fixed string
This completes the above video, its a very important note while explaining pulleys...…
Nice and simple video 👍 It helps me understand alot
I think you should clarify that you are not making work easier in the physics sense. You are doing the same amount of work, just utilizing less force to do it. For example in your second example you have to move your scale twice the distance to move the weight the same distance up. This means you are doing 500 grams by 2 vs 1000 grams by 1. They equal the same work done, just making it easier for the work to be done.
You are clearly a jack ass. So glad you will never become anything in life.
@@bishopguitars sorry if I wasnt clear. In physics work has a very specific definition, and this video actually does a great job of showing that definition. Say for example you have an object that takes 5 Newton's of force to move and you want to move it 10 meters. That would mean you need to do 50 Newton meters of work to move it that distance. A simple machine such as a pulley allows you to exert less force over a greater distance to move that object the same 10 meters. For example with a pulley I could exert 2.5 Newton's over 20 meters to move that object 10 meters.
The work isn't lessened or easier than before because I'm doing the exact same amount of work. The difference is I'm not needing to use as much force thus it seems easier from a practical point. Obviously for the weights involved in the video you could just pick them up and move them, but when your talking things that exert more force than you can physically being able to exert less force over greater distance becomes a great advantage.
@@inigomontoya4109 I understand what you're saying - the presenter is using the term "work" colloquially, not in a scientific context, and saying that "work is easier" in a scientific sense is wrong (because work = force*distance, and doesn't change).
A more precise way of saying it is the same amount of work requires less force but twice the "distance" (rope pulled). If you need to lift a 1000g weight 1m in the air, you can either do that by using the one pulley arrangement and pulling the rope 1m with 9.8N, or by pulling 2 m of rope with 4.9N.
So what he's saying is "work is easier" to the layman, but scientists would say "work requires less force".
inigo montoya Yes, work is the same. The person used less force, but the other pulleys made up for it.
Thanks a lot for this comment! W = f x d remember people
Just to specify. The work you have to do to lift the weight a given distance is not LESS using a pulley system than just a straight rope. However, depending on how you have defined EASIER it might be just that. But to lift the weight 10cm above the ground takes exactly the same amount of work (assuming friction free pulleys) whatever number of pulleys that you are using. If the pulleys are not friction free it takes even more work to lift it those 10cm using pulleys.
very informative. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I am really amazed by that! I'm SUBSCRIBING and LIKING!
thanks so much my head couldn't get around it keep doing what y'all r doing
Amazing video!
This is great!!! I am a member of the PTO at my school and I would love to have this project for our science night. Where can I get the materials for this project? Thank you!!!!
oh my god you are seriously the best one. have no words the explanation the examples were just out of the world. wow just wow. no words can describe it. gosh loved it just wow
Good now i understand in this topic of pulley
great explanation
Thank you so much for this!!!
Thanks it's useful
very nice experiment !!!!!!! understood at once

Great job! You should probably mention how you have to pull further distance because of the conservation of energy law
sh
Thank u sir for explaining every topic in fun way , with experiments in every topic .
You explain very very well ....
Thank u very much for that
awesome! Thanks man!
Great work number one.
I get it, nice.
FASCINATING!!
Thank you very much
i'm watching this in school unlike the other videos they show us i actually like this guys videos
we are so glad! science is so cool!
Science IS cool and so interesting when explained the way you do it. Thank You. P.S. The block&tackle you showed would make our work 6x easier, correct?
Glad you enjoyed it!
Can you provide me with the name of the stainless steel stand that you are using to demonstrate your pulley experiment on? I would like to purchase a stand like that to demonstrate on.
Great Video thanks
Great video. So from my understanding, if the setup has applied force moving in the opposite direction of the mass movement (eg pull down to move up), then the initial pulley doesn’t reduce required force, it simply changes force direction.
But if the setup keeps the direction the same (eg pull up to move mass up) then all pulleys reduce the required force needed.
So would this be what I’m thinking? Or have I misunderstood?:
Move in same direction, x = 1
Move in opposite direction x = 0
Required force = (mass to move)/(number of pulleys + x)
One of the best examples of the amazing world of pulleys..
great demo!!!
I know right
thank you very very much!!!

CONGRATS ON 100K SUBS!!!
when we pull the weight at different angles whether it makes the work much more easy
When multiple pulleys were put together and used to lift the weight what was the measure of doing this work?
A good point to make is that it is not about the number of pulleys it is about the connection points that are fixed and count as another helping hand in the force lifting the object
Thank you so much sir!
I couldn't figure out how fixed pulleys worked and this helped a lot 👍

👍👍👍Greetings from Sweden.
this video taught me a lot : )
What is the dependant, independant, and controlled variable in this experiment
Amazing
I use a riding lawn mower pulling a sweeper (grass clippings catcher). I have a rope attached to the sweeper so when it gets full, I can empty the sweeper without getting off the mower. One BIG problem: when the sweeper is at capacity (and since I'm 60 years old) I can only hardly empty the sweeper by pulling on the rope. Well, that's when I thought a pulley system might work. However, I'm at a loss as to how to set it up. Do I attach the pulley to the sweeper or the rear of the mower seat? Or the other way around? I'm thinking I may need to use a double pulley system since I'll be pulling horizontally and NOT vertically. Any suggestions?
Tie the rope to the mover, put the pulley on the sweeper, pull the end of the rope from the mower. The force required to dump the sweeper will be cut in half.
Great videos! Maybe use a little more specific vocabulary terms like 'friction', 'load', or 'mechanical advantage' sprinkled in would add some much needed common reference for students here and across your video series.
Great suggestion!
What happens to the force if you connect the load to one end and pull on the other side if both pulleys are fixed one top and on bottom?
nice and helpful video
Can I use this system to pull a vehicle by myself!? Knowing that the force that I will apply is not up or down, but from one side to the other, is it possible!?
puedo usar este sistema para jalar un vehiculo yo solo!? sabiendo que la fuerza que aplicare no es para arriba o abajo, sino de un lado a otro, se puede!?
Great video!
nice experiment easy to learn. .....
Thanks don't forget to subscribe!
Can someone explain how reversing direction of the pulley at 3:16 lessened the force necessary to move the weight?
Great video it helped me a lottttt👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
