How well a machine changes effort into work is called? What is the fixed point of a lever? What is the flat surface that has one end higher than the other? What is the bar that turns around a fixed point? What is the result of a force moving an object through a distance? Name the wheel attached to a smaller wheel or rod. What are the basic machines that make up other machines? What would you call two inclined planes placed back to back? What is the force you put into a simple machine? What would you call an inclined plane that is wrapped around a pole? What is a rope or chain and the wheel it fits around called?

A fixed pulley is similar to a class one lever because it A Changes the direction of the effort force

B Changes the size of the effort force C - Changes the weight of the effort force D Changes the position of the fulcrum A wedgeA pulls objects B- decreases total work C pushes things apart D reduces the resulting force When you use a lever to open a can of paint, the outer rim of the can is the A wedge B resulting force C effort force D fulcrum A simple machine alwaysA- changes the size or direction of a force B- moves an object in the same direction C- doubles the lifting force D- moves around a fixed point A wheel an axle increase the A- resulting force B- fulcrum C- effort force D- friction

Explain how playing on a seesaw is an example of the scientific definition of work.

Explain how a screw is actually an inclined plane.

Label the simple machines in the model of a compound machine.

If the lever is not moving now, what do you predict will happen to the window if the cat jumps off the balance?

You will need to label a picture of a broom with the following labels: resulting force, fulcrum, and effort force.
