Do all simple machines either reduce the input force or increase the distance over which work is performed?

Simple machines will reduce the input force, but can allow you to travel farther distances. Your'e body is not putting in as much force, your body will allow you to do more work for a longer time....but yes,it decreases the input force.


What simple machines are in a lawnmower?

The wheel and axle is what turns the blade which has inclined planes on it which slice through the grass. the wheel and Axle also allow for the lawnmower to be moved easily. Depending on the lawnmower, screws most likely hold it together.


Did capacitor allow change in current?

capacitors allow ac current to flow.


How do simple machines make work easier?

Simple machines make work easier by converting one form of energy exertion to another, such as tugging instead a rope with twice as much string but twice the resistance as in a pulley system. Wedges work by pushing down to move objects aside, usually to allow the user to at the same time work with gravity (i.e. not when cutting down a tree with an axe), using more strength but less distance. Each simple machine uses these conversions/compromises for user convenience, but in reality the total work is nearly constant but risen due to work wasted as friction (heat released to atmosphere).


What is nanotech and their uses?

Nanotechnology is building machines on the scale of molecules, a few nanometers wide, machines so small you can barely see them with a microscope. This technology will allow us to turn coal into diamonds and diamonds into coal and dirt, water, and air into potatoes. With this we can turn atoms into remarkably light, strong, smart, and durable machines at the cost of almost a third their normal price. We could make machines with much harder molecular structures at the ease and price of simple machines.Most of what I'm talking about right now is molecular nanotechnology, nanotechnology is the engineering of functional systems at the molecular scale. This covers both current work and concepts that are more advanced.

Why was the inclined plane invented?

The inclined plane is a simple machine. Simple machines were invented because they allow people to do more work in easier ways.

Which forces allow for mineral growth and change within metamorphic rocks?

It is heat and pressure.


What kind of simple machine is a tricycle?

A bike is not a simple machine. It is a compound machine. A bike is made of simple machines such as gears, a pulley, levers, wheel and axles, and screws.Firstly the Bicycle isn't a simple machine, its actually a compound machine meaning that it uses more than one simple machine to make it work.However the Pedals and Crankcase Sprocket and rear wheel sprocket are simple machines that fit into the Lever category as they allow you to exert and transfer torque.


For metamorphic rocks which forces allow for mineral growth and change within the rock?

Are ATM's cash machines?

Yes ATMs are an improved and more advanced technology of simple cash vending machines. ATMs are used to withdraw cash out, using debit or credit cards. Howevevr the latest technologically advanced ATM machines also allow to deposit cash or check through the ATM machines.


What are two ways machines make work easier?

Machines make work easier because they help to increase productivity. An example of a machine is a forklift. Forklifts allow workers to move more materials at one time which lowers the amount of time it takes to move materials.
