# Pulleys, gears and big machines, sentence 6

<!-- .ven lang=en -->
With several pulleys, more lengths of rope share the load, so you pull with less force but must pull much more rope.

<!-- .vintro -->
**Who acts:** more lengths, you · **What happens:** share, pull · **To what, where:** load, more rope

<!-- .vabout -->
This is a sentence of the lesson «Pulleys, gears and big machines» of the physics course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (more lengths, you), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
