SIMPLE MACHINES

Video

Wedge

Inclined Plane

Screw

Wheel and Axle

Lever

Pulley

Simple machines are useful because they can make a physical job easier by changing the magnitude or the direction of the force exerted to do work.

Have you ever tried to unscrew a nut, bolt, or screw from something with your bare hands and discovered that it was just too tight to loosen even if you had a good grip?

Why is it that it's so easy to unscrew with a tool when you can't with your bare hands?

The wrench and screw driver are examples of a wheel and axle, where the screw or bolt is the axle and the handle is the wheel. The tool makes the job easier by changing the amount of the force you exert.

Axle

Wheel

All of the simple machines can be used for thousands of jobs

from lifting a 500-pound weight to making a boat go. The

reason why these machines are so special is because they make

difficult tasks much easier.

A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a post.

Levers

There are three classes of levers:

LeversFirst Class: It has the fulcrum between the effort and the load.

Fulcrum: the place where the lever turns

Levers• Second Class: the load is located between the effort and the fulcrum.

Levers• Third Class: The effort is between the load and the fulcrum.
