15. Simple Machines The six simple machines are: –Lever –Wheel and Axle –Pulley –Inclined Plane –Wedge –Screw 15

16. 16 Machines- devices that allow you to do work easier by changing the amount of force you exert, the distance or the direction of the force

17. Mechanical Advantage pg 398 how many times a machine multiplies your effort force MA = output force/input force 17

18. Inclined Plane even sloping surface 18

19. 19 Input force- the force you exert Output force- the force the machine does

21. 21 The Lever A lever is a rigid bar that rotates around a fixed point called the fulcrum.

22. 22

23. 23 MA = distance from fulcrum to input force = 30 m = 3 distance from fulcrum to output force 10 m

24. Basket Directions Make a lever with the items in the basket with a mechanical advantage of 10 and another with a mechanical advantage of 1. Discuss the force distance tradeoff. Make an inclined plane with the items in your basket. Discuss how the inclined plane makes work easier. Make a ramp with a mechanical advantage of 2 and another with a MA = 4. 24

25. Wheel and Axle consists of a large wheel attached to a smaller wheel called an axle. MA = radius of the wheel radius of the axle 25

26. Pulley grooved wheel that turns freely can change the direction of a force or multiply force MA = # ropes pulling up on the object 26

27. Wedge 1-2 incline planes back to back MA = wedge length wedge width 27

29. Although it takes less force for car A to get to the top of the ramp, all the cars do the same amount of work. 29 A B C

30. Efficiency The comparison of work input to work output is called efficiency.The comparison of work input to work output is called efficiency. Efficiency = output work x 100 =Efficiency = output work x 100 = input work input work No machine has 100 percent efficiency due to friction.No machine has 100 percent efficiency due to friction. 30

36. Practice Questions 1. Explain who is doing more work and why: a bricklayer carrying bricks and placing them on the wall of a building being constructed, or a project supervisor observing and recording the progress of the workers from an observation booth. 2. How much work is done in pushing an object 7.0 m across a floor with a force of 50 N and then pushing it back to its original position? How much power is used if this work is done in 20 sec? 3. Using a single fixed pulley, how heavy a load could you lift ? 36

What is effort force? What is work input? Explain the relationship between effort force, effort distance, and work input. 37

38. Practice Questions 1. Explain who is doing more work and why: a bricklayer carrying bricks and placing them on the wall of a building being constructed, or a project supervisor observing and recording the progress of the workers from an observation booth. Work is defined as a force applied to an object, moving that object a distance in the direction of the applied force. The bricklayer is doing more work. 2. How much work is done in pushing an object 7.0 m across a floor with a force of 50 N and then pushing it back to its original position? How much power is used if this work is done in 20 sec? Work = 7 m X 50 N X 2 = 700 N-m or J; Power = 700 N-m/20 sec = 35 W 3. Using a single fixed pulley, how heavy a load could you lift?Since a fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of one, it will only change the direction of the force applied to it. You would be able to lift a load equal to your own weight, minus the negative effects of friction. 38

39. Practice Questions 4. Give an example of a machine in which friction is both an advantage and a disadvantage. One answer might be the use of a car jack. Advantage of friction: It allows a car to be raised to a desired height without slipping. Disadvantage of friction: It reduces efficiency. 5. Why is it not possible to have a machine with 100% efficiency? Friction lowers the efficiency of a machine. Work output is always less than work input, so an actual machine cannot be 100% efficient. 6. What is effort force? What is work input? Explain the relationship between effort force, effort distance, and work input. The effort force is the force applied to a machine. Work input is the work done on a machine. The work input of a machine is equal to the effort force times the distance over which the effort force is exerted. 39
