6-5.7 Explain how the design of
 simple machines (including
 levers, pulleys, and inclined
 planes) helps reduce the
 amount of force required to
 do work.
A simple machine is a
machine that helps you
do work by changing
the amount or direction
of the force you apply.
At the end of this activity:


You will write a paragraph
 that describes and gives
 examples of the 6 simple
 machines.

The Inclined Plane
An inclined plane is a flat
 surface that is higher on one
 end. You can use this machine
 to move an object to a lower
 or higher place.
Inclined planes make the work
 of moving things easier. You
 would need less energy and
 force to move objects with an
 inclined plane.
The Inclined Plane

Examples of Inclined
 Planes:
Ramp
Slanted Road
Path up a Hill
Slide
The Screw

A screw is a simple machine that
 is made from another simple
 machine. It is actually an inclined
 plane that winds around itself.
A screw has ridges and is not
 smooth like a nail. Some screws
 are used to lower and raise
 things. They are also used to
 hold objects together.
The Screw
Examples of the screw:
Jar Lids
Light Bulbs
Stools
Clamps
Jacks
Wrenches
Key Rings
Spiral Staircase
Lever
A lever is a board or bar that
 rests on a turning point. This
 turning point is called the
 fulcrum.
An object that a lever moves is
 called the load. The closer the
 object is to the fulcrum, the
 easier it is to move.
Lever
Examples of the lever:
A hammer is a lever
 when it is used to pull a
 nail out of a piece of
 wood.
Bottle openers
Crow bars
Pulley
This simple machine is made up of a
 wheel and a rope. The rope fits on
 the groove of the wheel.
One part of the rope is attached to the
 load. When you pull on one side of
 the pulley, the wheel turns and the
 load will move.
Pulleys let you move loads up, down,
 or sideways. Pulleys are good for
 moving objects to hard to reach
 places. It also makes the work of
 moving heavy loads a lot easier.
Pulley
Examples of where pulleys
  can be used:
 Flag Poles
 Clothes Lines
 Sailboat
 Blinds
 Crane
Wheel and Axle
You have probably seen a
 wheel and axle on a car. The
 axle turns when you put force
 on the wheel.
The axle is a rod that goes
 through the wheel. This lets
 the wheel turn. It is easy to
 move things from place to
 place with wheels and axles.
Wheel and Axle
Examples of Wheels and
 Axles:
Cars
Roller Skates
Wagons
Door Knobs
Gears in Watches, Clocks,
 and Bicycles
Wedge
A wedge is a simple
 machine used to push two
 objects apart. A wedge is
 made up of two inclined
 planes. These planes meet
 and form a sharp
 edge. This edge can split
 things apart.
Wedge
Examples of wedges:
Knives
Axes
Forks

 design of simple machines
 (including levers, pulleys,

 reduce the amount of force
 required to do work
Levers


A ___________________ is a
 rigid bar or board that is free to
 move around a fixed point called a
 ________________.
A lever can be designed to reduce force
 required to lift an object in two ways:
   By ______________________ the distance
    from the ____________ to the point where
    the effort force is applied
   By _____________________ the distance
    the ____________ is from the fulcrum
 Is it easier to lift the box of books when the
  fulcrum is in the center of the board, or when the
  fulcrum is at the end of the board closest to the
  box?

 Is it easier to lift the box of books when you
  apply a force on the effort arm near the fulcrum,
  or far away from the fulcrum?

 Name one way you could
change this lever to reduce
the effort force required to lift
the load.
Final Key Point


By increasing the distance
 the effort force moves
 relative to the distance the
 weight moves, a lever can
 reduce the effort force
 needed to lift an object.

    Standard 6-5.7 Explain howthe design of simple machines (including levers, pulleys, and inclined planes) helps reduce the amount of force required to do work
  • 75.
    Levers A ___________________ isa rigid bar or board that is free to move around a fixed point called a ________________.
  • 76.
    A lever canbe designed to reduce force required to lift an object in two ways:  By ______________________ the distance from the ____________ to the point where the effort force is applied  By _____________________ the distance the ____________ is from the fulcrum
  • 77.
     Is iteasier to lift the box of books when the fulcrum is in the center of the board, or when the fulcrum is at the end of the board closest to the box?  Is it easier to lift the box of books when you apply a force on the effort arm near the fulcrum, or far away from the fulcrum?  Name one way you could change this lever to reduce the effort force required to lift the load.
  • 78.
    Final Key Point Byincreasing the distance the effort force moves relative to the distance the weight moves, a lever can reduce the effort force needed to lift an object.

    The Inclined Plane Aninclined plane is a flat surface that is higher on one end. You can use this machine to move an object to a lower or higher place. Inclined planes make the work of moving things easier. You would need less energy and force to move objects with an inclined plane.
  • 91.
    The Inclined Plane Examplesof Inclined Planes: Ramp Slanted Road Path up a Hill Slide
  • 92.
    The Screw A screwis a simple machine that is made from another simple machine. It is actually an inclined plane that winds around itself. A screw has ridges and is not smooth like a nail. Some screws are used to lower and raise things. They are also used to hold objects together.
  • 93.
    The Screw Examples ofthe screw: Jar Lids Light Bulbs Stools Clamps Jacks Wrenches Key Rings Spiral Staircase
  • 94.
    Lever A lever isa board or bar that rests on a turning point. This turning point is called the fulcrum. An object that a lever moves is called the load. The closer the object is to the fulcrum, the easier it is to move.
  • 95.
    Lever Examples of thelever: A hammer is a lever when it is used to pull a nail out of a piece of wood. Bottle openers Crow bars
  • 96.
    Pulley This simple machineis made up of a wheel and a rope. The rope fits on the groove of the wheel. One part of the rope is attached to the load. When you pull on one side of the pulley, the wheel turns and the load will move. Pulleys let you move loads up, down, or sideways. Pulleys are good for moving objects to hard to reach places. It also makes the work of moving heavy loads a lot easier.
  • 97.
    Pulley Examples of wherepulleys can be used:  Flag Poles  Clothes Lines  Sailboat  Blinds  Crane
  • 98.
    Wheel and Axle Youhave probably seen a wheel and axle on a car. The axle turns when you put force on the wheel. The axle is a rod that goes through the wheel. This lets the wheel turn. It is easy to move things from place to place with wheels and axles.
  • 99.
    Wheel and Axle Examplesof Wheels and Axles: Cars Roller Skates Wagons Door Knobs Gears in Watches, Clocks, and Bicycles

    Wedge A wedge isa simple machine used to push two objects apart. A wedge is made up of two inclined planes. These planes meet and form a sharp edge. This edge can split things apart.
