5. Objectives  Differentiate between the six simple machines. (SPI 0707.11.1)  Determine the amount of force needed to do work using different simple machines. (SPI 0707.11.2)

6. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A machine is a device that makes work easier by changing the size or direction of a force.  Examples: wheelchair, scissors, chopsticks

7. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A machine or simple device without moving parts.  Examples: lever, pulley, wheel & axle, inclined plane, wedge, screw

8. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  Work is the transfer of energy to an object by using a force that causes the object to move in the direction of the force.  Work is done on an object if two things happen: 1) the object moves as a force is applied, 2) the direction of the object’s motion is the same as the direction of the force.  Examples: pushing a ball up a hill

9. OR YES NOYESNO

10. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A push or a pull exerted on an object in order to change the motion of the object; force has size and direction.  Examples: people, bulldozer, static electricity

11. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  Work input is the work done on the machine.  Work output is the work done by the machine.  Examples: opening a paint can

12. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A lever is a simple machine that has a bar that pivots at a fixed point, called a fulcrum.  Examples: first-class lever (see saw), second-class lever (wheelbarrow or soda bottle opener), third- class lever (lifting weights or hammering a nail)

13. First-Class LeverSecond-Class LeverThird-Class Lever Elementary SchoolMiddle SchoolHigh School

14. Which of the following correctly explains why one of the above levers can lift the object with less effort force? A.Lever X will require less effort force because its fulcrum is closer to the object than lever Y's fulcrum. B.Lever Y is a third-class lever and will require less effort force than lever X, which is a second-class lever. C.Lever X is a third-class lever and will require less effort force than lever Y, which is a second-class lever. D.Lever Y will require less effort force because its fulcrum is closer to the input force than lever X's fulcrum.Levers

15. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A simple machine that has a grooved wheel that holds a rope or a cable.  Examples: fixed, moveable, block and tackle

16. The pulley changes the direction of the force. Elevators make use of fixed pulleys. Movable pulleys do increase force, but they also increase the distance over which the input force must be exerted. A fixed pulley and a movable pulley are used together; the mechanical advantage of a block and tackle depends on the number of rope segments.

17. Which of the pulley systems shown below will lift the weight using the least amount of effort force? Pulleys

18. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A simple machine consisting of two circular objects of different sizes.  Examples: car’s wheel & axle, faucet

19. Effort force applied to a wheel is ____________ when it is transferred to the axle because the axle travels a ___________ distance than the wheel. A.multiplied, longer B.divided, longer C.multiplied, shorter D.divided, shorter Wheel & Axle

20. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A simple machine that is a straight, slanted surface; a ramp.  Examples: ramp or slide

21. Tom wants to put a heavy box into the back of a moving truck. He is not strong enough to lift the box into the truck, so he uses a ramp to slide it up instead. The ramp is as an inclined plane that A.increases both the force needed to move the box and the distance over which the force is applied. B.increases the force needed to move the box while decreasing the distance over which the force is applied. C.decreases both the force needed to move the box and the distance over which the force is applied. D.decreases the force needed to move the box while increasing the distance over which the force is applied. Inclined Plane

22. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A simple machine that is made up of two inclined planes and that moves; often used for cutting.  Examples: knife, axe, door stop

23. Select the choice that best completes the following sentence. When an axe is used to chop wood, A.the axe blade acts as a wedge and changes the direction of the input force. B.the axe blade acts as a wedge and does not change the direction of the input force. C.the axe blade acts as a lever and does not change the direction of the input force. D.the axe blade acts as a lever and changes the direction of the input force. Wedge

24. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A simple machine that consists of an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder.  Examples: screw, light bulb

25. Which of the screws below requires the least amount of effort force to turn? W. X.Z.Y. Screws

26. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A machine made up of more than one simple machine.  Examples: manual can opener

27. YOURS:TEXTBOOK:  A machine’s mechanical advantage is the number of times the machine multiplies force; how much easier it is to do the work using that specific machine.  Examples: Mechanical Advantage It is 10 times easier to use a ramp to move a heavy object.
