When a hammer pulls a nail out of the object what are the two simple machines at work?

The two simple machines are a lever and a fulcrum.


How does a wheel and axel make work easier?

It allows us to move objects with the minimal amount of friction. Would you rather drag an object or pull it on a cart? When you have wheels underneath the object your are transporting, there are only a few points touching the ground (the wheels). Therefore, there is less friction created when you pull the object. When there is less friction, there is higher efficiency. There are, of course, other ways it makes life easier, but that is one of the main ideas. Hope that helped. ;) i agree with the above answer but i would not say a wheel and axle is the main point of simple machines and their efficiency


What are the three views of a sketch or drawing that are required to an object?

Isometric, Orthographic and Perspective, but perspective is not required to depict an object.


How do you use set and get in object-oriented programming?

A set function (or setter) is an object mutator. You use it to modify a property of an object such that the object's invariant is maintained. If the object has no invariant, a setter is not required. A get function (or getter) is an object accessor. You use it to obtain a property from an object such that the object's invariant is maintained. If the object has no invariant, you do not need a getter.


What is a pulley system?

It is a system of ropes and wheels that achieve the purpose of making an object easier to lift.

How is the work output of a machine related to its work input?

Note: This answer addresses simple machines, such as levers, pulleys, and ramps - it does not address complex machines, such as engines..Machines affect work by applying one or more of the following principles:altering the amount of force applied in order to do the work;altering the amount of time over which the force is applied; and/oraltering the direction that the force is applied..A simple pulley, or a balanced lever, does not change the amount of force required to lift an object, or the time during which the force is applied, but they do change the direction of the force. A balanced lever (a teeter totter) makes it easier to lift another object (your friend on the other end of the teeter totter) because you can use your own weight to help lift that object (your friend). Such simple, balanced machines do not decrease the force, nor increase the amount of time during which the force is applied - they merely redirect the force, which is often helpful..Ramps, pulleys, and levers can also reduce the required force, in addition to changing the direction of the applied force, making the work easier in two ways. For example, a compound pulley reduces the amount of force required to lift a heavy object, but it now takes more time of that applied force to lift the weight. When this occurs, the machine does not actually change the amount of work done, but the machine makes it easier to do the same amount of work by spreading that work done over a longer period of time at a reduced force..Some machines use the opposite principle - they require more force than normal, but the force is applied over a reduced period of time. A catapult is an example of this principle - it is a lever in which more work is required to lift an object than without the catapult lever, but the object is lifted so quickly that, by the time the object is lifted, it is travelling fast enough to become a ballistic object.A machine affects work done by magnifying human's physical capabilities which reduces the intensity of the work.


How do simple machines do work?

They use the aerodynamics of the perpetual motion machines to produce an inverse relationship which allows the input force and effort to be reduced, thereby increasing the distance over which the object is obliged to TRAVEL.


How much acceleration is required to move a 1 kg object?

Any amount will do.


What kinds of devices make work easier by reducing required effort or by changing the direction of required effort?

Levers multiply the mechanical force that can be applied to another object, thus making work easier.


Does the advantage of using an incline plane to lift an object is that it reduces the amount of applied force?

Yes, it makes it easier to push the object up.

What is the measure of the amount of heat an object has?

Heat capacity is generally measured as Jule per Kelvin in SI system. It is the the amount of heat required to change a substance's temperature by a given amount.
