No, it's a compound machine.
A pencil sharpener is a compound machine made up of simple machines, like the screw and lever.
A pencil sharpener is an example of a simple machine known as a wedge. The blade inside the sharpener is shaped like a wedge, which helps to cut and shape the pencil tip when it is inserted and rotated.

No, a pencil sharpener is not a kind of pulley. A pencil sharpener is a tool used to sharpen pencils, while a pulley is a simple machine that consists of a wheel on an axle, used for lifting and moving objects.

A pencil sharpener is a type of inclined plane simple machine. The blade inside the sharpener is positioned at an angle to the pencil, allowing for the application of force over a longer distance to produce a sharp point. As the pencil is inserted and turned, the inclined plane of the blade shaves away the wood and graphite, creating the pointed tip.
yes it is.
Wedge
A pencil sharpener uses a central rod (axle) that rotates when the handle is turned, causing the blade (wheel) to spin against the pencil, sharpening it. This simple machine design allows for easy and efficient sharpening of pencils.
