They don't. Distance is the same no matter what. What changes is the ability to convert energy to horizontal acceleration.
The wheel and axle would be multiplying distance.
Explain how the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle change as the size of the wheel increases?
it's a mechanical advantage of 1 (meaning no mechanical advantage). This is because no matter how much easier it is to spin a the wheel rather than the axle, its a longer distance of effort force and vice versa. * * * * * True, but that is not what mechanical advantage is! Mechanical advantage IS the trade off between the force required and the distance travelled. You can find the ideal mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle by dividing the radius of the wheel by the radius of the axle. * * * * * Better. But I think it could be either of the two reciprocal ratios of the radii, depending on whether the wheel/axle is being used in a 2nd class or 3rd class lever configuration ... i.e., are you cranking the wheel in order to turn the axle, as in a winch, or spinning the axle in order to turn the wheel, as in a motor-vehicle ?
because the wheel turns through a much greater distance than the axle.but the smaller turn of the axle is more powerful.witten by-brenda v.=========================Answer #2:-- The fact that the wheel turns through a greater distance that the axle doesis a result, not a cause, of the wheel being bigger than the axle.-- The axle is not more powerful than the wheel. Ignoring losses, they must bothhave the same power. The axle's force is greater than the wheel's force, but to payfor it, the axle must turn through greater distance. Same as all the lever stuff.-- The diameter of the wheel needs to be greater than the diameter of the axleonly if you'd prefer not to have the axle scrape on the ground.
In a wheel and axle system, the input force applied over a larger distance rotates the wheel, which has a larger radius than the axle. This causes the axle, where the output force is exerted, to rotate over a smaller distance but with increased force due to the principle of mechanical advantage.
Yes, a wheel and axle allows for a change in direction of the effort force. By applying the effort force tangentially to the wheel, it can rotate around the axle, allowing the direction of the force to be redirected as needed.

Yes, the wheel and axle is a compound machine. It consists of two simple machines - the wheel and the axle - working together to transmit force and motion. The wheel's larger radius helps to increase distance moved, while the axle's smaller radius increases force applied.
A short wheel base frame is 102" and some change from axle to axle. Long wheel base is 112" and some change.
No, a wheel and axle does not increase effort force. Instead, it allows a person to apply a smaller force over a longer distance to achieve the same work. This mechanical advantage results from the larger radius of the wheel compared to the axle.
It lightens the amount of force you have to exert to travel over a distance.
Yes, it is a wheel and axle.
