In a rope and pulley system there can be no mechanical advantage without at least one pulley in the system. |
| Definition
|
Term
The rule of thumb for quickly determining mechanical advantage in a rope and pulley system is to count the number of parts of the that are applying force on the running block. |

What is the maximum recommended fleet angle of a cable running between sheaves? |
| Definition
|
Term
A good rule of thumb for limitting the fleet angle of a cable between two sheaves is that you are allowed 1 unit of offset for every units of distance between the sheaves. |
