Explain why wedges and screws are actually types of inclined planes?

Why is the wedge and screw actually an inclined plane? Well, screws are actually tapering, if you take the ridge off and lay it flat. The screw is actually nothing but an inclined plane wrapped around a small pole. The wedge is an inclined plane because it starts at a point, then goes up, getting thicker, like an inclined plane. It's just that a knife's not used to lift a box of glasses onto a train. Imagine using an inclined plane as a knife!

Does the Earth's axis spin at an angle to the Sun?

It spins on an axis that is tilted with respect to the plane of its orbit around the Sun. This tilt means that first one pole, then the other, is tipped toward the Sun as the planet circles the Sun. When the North Pole is inclined toward the Sun, it is summer in the Northern Hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere. When the South Pole is inclined toward the Sun, the Southern Hemisphere has summer and the northern has winter. Twice a year (spring and fall equinoxes) neither pole is tipped toward the Sun for a brief moment. On that day, day and night are about equally long (12 hours) for the entire planet. The axial tilt is about 23.5 degrees to the perpendicular to the orbital plane.

Why does the sun move to a different point in the sky during every season?

Because the Earth's axis of spin is inclined some 23 degrees in respect to the pole to the plane in which it orbits the Sun.


Is a flag pole a simple machine or inclined planes?

yes a flag pole is a sample machine


Is the planet mars directly beneath the south pole?

No. Neither end of the earth's axis points anywhere near Mars, so Mars doesn't appear anywhere near either celestial pole in the sky. Mars' orbital plane is inclined only 1.9 degrees to the plane of earth's orbit (the ecliptic plane). So Mars can never appear more than 1.9 degrees north or south of any point in the sky where the sun can ever appear.
