Pull up:
(a) Pull and move an object up. "My jeans were sliding down, so I pulled them up."
(b) An exercise where you hang from a bar and use your arm muscles to pull yourself up. "I'm so weak, I can't even do a pull up."
(c) To steer a plane / helicopter up, often to avoid a collision. "We're going to crash into the mountain--pull up!"

Pull out:
(a) To pull something in an outward direction. "I pulled out the drawer and looked for my socks." "I pulled out my phone and started texting."
(b) To retreat or quit something. "We've found everything we can here. It's time to pull out." "I had to pull my son out of public school because he wouldn't behave."

You can use the words "up" and "out" in lots of different combinations with lots of different verbs. Too many to list here.

@sgbowen yes but for example in english we also use “off” and “out” like “rip off” - off in this means to remove something on something. “rip out” - out in this means to remove something contained within something. Whether the words change as long as it’s a verb, the off and out don’t change its meaning, so you can use these with different words bc you know how it can be used but it’s bit more difficult with nouns like “pull up/out”. is it something you just learn eventually by hearing them frequently? or is there an explanation on how it can be used with nouns?
