Differential pulley were. Next, the downward force acting on the lower pulley equal the upward forces acting on it, so Additionally, there is no net torque or moment around the compound pulley, so the clockwise torque is equal to the anticlockwise torque: Substituting "F" and "F" from the above equations, Rearranging gives As "F" = , Finally, the mechanical advantage, = or . Differential pulley A differential pulley, also called "Weston differential pulley", sometimes "chain hoist" or colloquially "chain fall", is used to manually lift very heavy objects like car engines. It is operated by pulling upon the slack section of a
Miztec (schooner barge) the State of Michigan after they were seized in a 1992 Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment (DNRE) raid on the Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum. The State allows the museum to hold a triple sheave block and hook and a double sheave block and hook from the "Miztec" as a loan. Her wreck is now protected by the Whitefish Point Underwater Preserve as part of an underwater museum. The 194 foot wooden "Miztec" was built as a 3-masted schooner in 1890 in Marine City, Michigan. She was enrolled at Port Huron, Michigan on 8 April 1890. On 3 May
