28. Let’s take a closer look at simple machines!
Suppose you needed to put together a dresser. Which simple machines might you use?
Let’s take a closer look at simple machines!

29. Introduction Simple machines are tools that make work easier
Simple machines are machines with few or no moving parts.
Compound Machine- a machine that uses two or more simple machines.
You are doing the same amount of work — it just seems easier

30. Kinds of Simple Machines

31. What is a Lever?
A lever is a board or bar that rests on a turning point
Most common simple machine because just about anything that has a handle on it has a lever attached

32. What is a Wedge?
A wedge is a simple machine used to push two objects apart
A wedge is usually made up of two inclined planes
These planes meet and form a sharp edge. This edge can split or push objects apart
An ax is a wedge that splits wood.

33. What is a Screw?
An inclined plane that winds around itself a wedge at the tip
A screw has ridges and is not smooth like a nail
Some screws are used to lower and raise things
A screw is a simple machine used to hold objects together.

34. What is a Wheel and Axle?
A wheel and axle is a simple machine made of a rod attached to the center of a wheel.
The axle is a rod that goes through the wheel. This lets the wheel turn.
The axle, or rod, turns when you put force on the wheel.
You probably have seen a wheel and axle on scooters, cars, roller skates, and wagons.

35. What is an Inclined Plane?
A ramp is an inclined plane.
A flat surface that is higher on one end - slanting surface connecting a lower level to a higher level.
You can use this machine to move an object to a lower or higher place.

36. What is a Pulley?
Instead of an axle, the wheel could also rotate a rope or cord. This variation of the wheel and axle is the pulley
In a pulley, a cord wraps around a wheel
As the wheel rotates, the cord moves in either direction lifting a load
You can use a pulley to move a load up, down or sideways.

37. Two Types of Pulleys
Fixed pulleys are attached to the building and do not move Ex. Flag Pole
Moveable pulleys are attached to the object that is being lifted.

38. Summary: Why are simple machines important?
Simple machines are important to us in our daily life.
They help us do work.
They make our lives easier.

42. Pulleys

43. Single Pulley: A single pulley reverses the direction of a force
With one pulley, the force you must pull with is the same as the weight of the object.
In order to raise the object a height of 1 meter, you must pull the rope 1 meter
Trade-off: the end of the rope must move a greater distance than the load

44. Compound Pulley (combination):
Two or more pulleys connected together
Allow a heavy load to be lifted with less force
Effort needed to lift the load is less than half the weight of the load
Trade-off: you need more rope and you need to pull more rope!

45. Fixed Pulley:
The fixed pulley is attached to an unmovable object like a ceiling or wall
May be single or combination
Doesn't change position
Makes work easier by changing the direction of the applied force
The force required to lift the load remains the same as lifting it without the pulley

46. Movable Pulley:
A pulley that moves with the load (both the load and the pulley move)
The load moves in the same direction as the applied force
The movable pulley allows the effort to be less than the weight of the load
It takes less force to raise an object than if you used only your hands
The amount of force required depends on the number of supporting ropes
The greater the number of pulleys and supporting ropes, the smaller the force required.

47. In the second picture, the weight is held by two ropes instead of one
In the second picture, the weight is held by two ropes instead of one. That means the weight is split equally between the two ropes, so each one holds only half the weight.

48. Pulleys are used to gain mechanical advantage trading the amount of rope you have to pull to lift an object for how heavy the object can be.

49. The more lines of support (ropes) a pulley has, the more mechanical advantage it has!
