Vertical waves with a single rope: The trainee holds one end of the battle rope with two hands and stands with the feet shoulder-width apart, keeping the back straight and core engaged and driving the wave all the way to the end. The arms are moved up and down to generate force (waves) moving down the rope.
This means the input force on the rope is F A =F B /n. Thus, the block and tackle reduces the input force by the factor n. A double tackle has two pulleys in both the fixed and moving blocks with four rope parts (n) supporting the load (F B) of 100 N. The mechanical advantage is 4, requiring a force of only 25 N to lift the load.
