advantage
Wheel and axle
a device that makes work easier
a flat, slanted surface that allows less force to be used over a greater
distance to do the same amount of work
a simple machine that consists of two inclined planes
a simple machine that consists of an inclined plane wrapped around a
cylinder
a simple machine that consists of a rod that pivots on a fixed support
called a fulcrum
a simple machine consisting of a rope and a wheel which changes the
direction, but not the amount of force required to do work
a set of multiple pulleys that change the direction and reduce the amount
of force required, while increasing the distance over which the force
must be applied
the number of times a machine multiples the input force
a simple machine that consists of a wheel that turns around a central
rod, called the axle
