The blades of the scissors are a pair of wedges in a cross shape which pivot
Levers (the two blades) and wedges (the blade edges).
Wedge and lever.
The scissors as a whole would be a lever, but the blades in particular are wedges - an inclined plane if you will.The scissors' blades are sharpened into wedges, and the arms that are squeezed together are levers.
Two wedges and a lever.
A pair of scissors, it consists of 2 wedges (the cutting blades) and a lever (the handles) An axe, it consists of 1 wedge (the axe head) and a lever (the handle)
Scissors a compound machine because it's more than one simple machine.the handle is a lever and the blade is a wedge.
In a pair of scissors, the fulcrum is located where the two blades pivot. In a hammer, the fulcrum is located where the handle attaches to the head of the hammer.
Scissors work as both levers and wedges. The lever part of the scissors is the handle being the input force (Fin), and the blade being the output force (Fout). The middle of the scissors that only turns and moves the smallest distance is the fulcrum. The fulcrum is what make the scissors a lever by having a "jack" for the scissors to sit on while the blade does all the cutting. The way to see if the lever is efficient or inefficient, you calculate the mechanical advantage of the lever. Mechanical advantage is calculating output force (Fout) by the input force (Fin) in Newtons. In the end. since you are dividing two numbers using the same unit (Newtons) the units cancel each other out. Therefore, leaving you with a number with no units of measurement to go with the final quotient. E.G MA= Fout/Fin = 3N/1N = 3 Scissors can also be used as a wedge. You see, (a) wedge(s) is/are (an) object(s) that split(s) (an)other object(s) apart. Scissors work as a wedge because the blades push whatever you are cutting apart from each other. Finally, making a pair of scissors a wedge and a lever.
A paper cutter is a second class lever. The resistance is positioned between the effort and the fulcrum. Second class levers always increase the force applied to them, but do not change the direction of the force.
There are no pronouns for a pair of scissors. Try 'I was trying to cut the card with scissors, but it was too tough for them'. In that sentence 'them' is a pronoun for scissors.
Boo Radley had stabbed his father in the leg with a pair of scissors when he was younger.
Scissors is actually singular and plural. It is all in how you say it. As an example: I have a pair of scissors. I have 5 pair of scissors.
