PPT-Simple Machines

By Drew Harris Simple machines The basic machines that make up other machines are called simple machines  There are six of them They are lever pulley wheel and axle inclined plane screw and wedge All these machines help us move things by changing the size of the force applied the direction of the force or both at once . What is a Simple Machine?. A simple machine has few or no moving parts.. Simple machines make work easier. Wheels and Axles. The wheel and axle are a simple machine. The axle is a rod that goes through the wheel which allows the wheel to turn. November 24. th. -25. th. . Goal:.

Simple machine is a term used to describe certain parts and pieces.. A simple machine is an apparatus that is made of a small number of pieces and permits us to use more efficiently or more comfortably mechanical energy. It helps us reduce the necessary force to perform a task.. A simple machine is any of the basic mechanical devices for applying a force, such as an inclined plane, wedge, or lever.. Simple machines are utilized to reduce the amount of force required to perform work, initiate or resist motion, break or split molecular bonds of solids, or keep two non-molecularly-bonded solid objects bound together.. Physical Systems: Simple Machines. Simple Machines. A simple machine is a device, composed of only one or two parts, that requires a single force to work.. The stapler works by applying a single downward force at its open end. . Why do we use machines?. Machines make doing work easier.. But they do not decrease the work that you do.. Instead, they . change the way you do work.. In general you trade more force for less distance or less force for more distance. Pay attention. Simple Machines. Simple machines assist us in doing work by creating a mechanical advantage.. They . do not . change the amount of work; they lower the effort force. There are 6 types of simple machines: lever, inclined plane, pulley, wedge, screw, and wheel and axle.. 2. SIMPLE MACHINES - LEVER. A lever is a rigid bar that rotates around a fixed point called the fulcrum.. The bar may be either straight or curved.. In use, a lever has both an effort (or applied) force and a load (resistant force). . Have you ever played that zany game called Mouse Trap? That series of events produced by a bunch of simple machines brought together to achieve one task, is called a Rube Goldberg Machine. Rube Goldbe
