प्रश्न
Name a machine to change the direction of force ?
उत्तर
To change the direction of force: a single fixed pulley is used to lift a bucket full of water from the well by applying the effort in the downward direction instead of applying it upwards when the bucket is lifted up without the use of pulley.
