46 This helps you move an object across the ground because they cut down on the amount of friction between what you're trying to move and the surface you're pulling it against. wheel and axle
47 Examples of this simple machine are used to hold things together. It is made up of an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. screw
48 wedge This simple machine can be used to slip things apart or hold a door open. wedge
49 gear This version of a simple machine is a wheel with teeth on it that fit together when the simple machine is turned. These simple machines are used to increase or decrease turning power by changing their size. gear
50 This simple machine can be used to lift a weight. It has a fulcrum, or pivot point, which can be located in the center, near the end or at the end of this simple machine. lever
An inclined plane turned on its side which helps push things apart 51 An inclined plane turned on its side which helps push things apart wedge
52 A heavy object could be rolled up this simple machine, instead of lifting it straight up. Using this simple machine can save effort, although the object must usually cover more distance if this simple machine is used. inclined plane
53 A rope, wheel with a groove in it and a weight make up this simple machine. You can pull down on the rope to lift the weight. pulley
54 The simplest of simple machines because to make it work, nothing moves. inclined plane
55 This makes work seem easier because it changes the direction of motion to work with gravity. pulley
56. Where is the fulcrum, resistance, and effort in this lever?
57. What class of lever is a wheelbarrow? second class
58. Where is the fulcrum, resistance, and effort in this lever?
59. What class of lever is a seesaw? first class
60. Where is the fulcrum, resistance, and effort in this lever?
61. What class of lever is a nutcracker? second class
62. Where is the fulcrum, resistance, and effort in this lever?
63. What class of lever is a door? second class
64. Where is the fulcrum, resistance, and effort in this lever?
65. What class of lever is a broom? third class
66. Where is the fulcrum, resistance, and effort in this lever?
67. What class of lever is a pair of scissors? first class
68. What is a push or pull called? a force
69. Is work done if a person holds 5 textbooks, but doesn’t move? no
70. Is work done if a a dog picks up a stick and carries it to his dog house? yes
71. What is the unit for a force? a newton
72. What is a quantity that measures the effects of a force acting over a distance called? work
73. What is the unit for work? joule
74. What is a Newton·meter? joule
75. In the SI system, what is the approximate weight of an apple? 1 newton
76. What is a quantity that measures the rate at which work is done called? power
77. What is the SI unit for power? watt
78. What is the English unit for power? horsepower
79. Name two ways you can multiply a force by using a simple machine. Machines can change the diretion of an input force or they can increase an output force by changing the distance over which the force is applied.
80. What is the name of a quantity that measures how much a machine multiplies force or distance? mechanical advantage
81. What are the three members of the lever family? lever, pulley, and wheel and axle
82. What are the three members of the inclined plane family? inclined plane, wedge, and screw
83. What is the fulcrum of a lever? the pivoting point of the lever
84. What is a compound machine? a machine consisting of two or more simple machines
