Can simple machines increase force?

What is the ‘cost’ for using a machine to increase force


Do simple machines always increase force?

Increasing force. Reduction in force. Power transmission. Force for change.


Do machines increase distance over which force acts?

yes :D


How do machines increase output force?

by moving the object thru a smaller distance.


Do what force is Neutrinos transmit?

The neutrino is not an exchange particle, it does not transmit force.


When you exert force on a fluid in a closed container does the pressure increase decrease or remain constant?

The pressure increases.


What explains what happens when force is applied to confined fluid?

When a force is applied to a confined fluid, an increase in pressure is transmitted equally to all parts of the fluid. This is known as Pascal's principle.


When an object is moving faster through a fluid -how does this affect the force of friction?

In a fluid, the force of friction tends to increase when the speed increases. The exact relationship, however, is far from simple.


Why is brake fluid used in car brakes?

To start off, a fluid is used in the brake system because fluids are not compressible, so it can transmit the force applied by your foot to the brake system. This is the reason brakes must be bled of air. Since air is compressible it will increase the distance your foot must travel before the force of the fluid can do it's job. Brake fluid is specifically designed for brake systems because it can sustain high pressure, lubricate components, and withstand high temperatures.


How does the six simple machines help us?

Simple machine helps us to increase the power and force for change.


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.


Why is force exerted on a small piston multiplied when it acts on a larger pistion?

Suppose the smaller piston was 1 square cm and the large piston was 7 square cm. If you pushed on the small piston, the force would be multiplied 7 times on the large piston. The Hydraulic System is a system that uses liquids to transmit pressure and multiply force in a confined fluid. Hope this helped. (:
