This knot is very useful for adjusting tie downs quickly and easily. For example, a tarp could be held down by a series of these knots and be made very tight so the wind cannot make it rise, and easily be removed simply by sliding the knots later. A taut line knot is also used to keep larg

Lecture 3D - Lifting with a Pulley
Here is what pulleys are good for. They can apply the tension force multiple times for a "mechanical advantage". In this problem we go through the tensions and weights, and think about the effect on motion.
