A pulley trades force for distance of rope traveled.

Essentially, someone is unable to lift a 100 pound object. However, they are able to move two 50 pound objects. It takes twice as long, and they moved the same amount.

Therefore, the answer is that <em>distance the rope is pulled is increased</em>
