There are six simple machines. They are as follows: lever, wheel, pulley, incline plane, wedge and screw. This tutorial will cover the first three. Simple machines can give you a mechanical advantage—in other words they allow you to spread the force you apply to move an object over a distance.
We'll discuss the six types of simple machines: wheel and axle, pulley, lever, inclined plane, screw, and wedge.
Il existe six machines simples : le levier, la roue, la poulie, le plan incliné, le coin et la vis. Ce tutoriel couvre les trois premières. Les machines simples procurent un avantage mécanique. Autrement dit, elles permettent de multiplier la force exercée pour déplacer un objet sur une certaine distance.

A pulley is a simple machine. Are you suggesting a powered machine that uses a gas engine or electric motor to provide the power? Pulleys are also used in powered machines and how they function is the same if they are used by themselves or in conjunction with a motor or engine to provide the power.
