Pulley system, demonstrating how pulleys facilitate the lifting of heavy weights (2004)

A gun tackle has a single pulley in both the fixed and moving blocks with 2 rope parts dividing the load of 100N. The mechanical advantage is 2, requiring a force of only 50N to lift the load.

Nope. Right now the system is balanced, the rope is not being pulled just hold. To pull the weight up you need more than 50N, plus a bit more if we take into consideration the friction in the pulleys and in the rope itself.
