Work– force exerted over a distance • Force • Distance • Energy # 62
Spring scale – used for finding force in Newtons (N) • Measurement • Mass • Gravity # 63
simple machine – allows a smaller force with a larger distance • Lever • Pulley • Inclined plane • Wedge • Screw • Wheel and axle # 64
Effort – force used on a machine to make work Push or pull Mass Force # 65
lever – a bar that balances on a fixed point • Tools • Crow bar • Tweezers • Fulcrum # 66
fulcrum – the point where the lever balances • Pivot • Change location • Doesn’t move # 67
pulley – a rope wrapped around a grooved wheel • Fixed • Movable • Blinds # 68
Block and Tackle - a combination of 2 or more pulleys • Weight machine • Crane • More pulleys = less effort # 69
inclined plane – sloping surface used to raise objects, doesn’t move Less Force Ramp Lift # 70
wedge – inclined plane with 1 or 2 sloping sides Moves Nail Knife # 71
screw – inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder • More distance, less force • Bolt • Jar lid # 72
Wheel and axle – 2 circular objects, a shaft (axle) in the middle of a wheel • Door knobs • Steering wheels • Screwdrivers • Gears • Bicycle wheels # 73
Complex or compound machines– 2 or more simple machines Scissors Fishing pole Bicycle # 74
