An ax is considered a compound machine because it combines two simple machines: a wedge and a lever. The blade of the ax functions as a wedge, which splits wood apart when struck, while the handle acts as a lever, allowing the user to exert force and generate momentum. This combination enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of cutting, making the ax a practical tool for splitting and chopping.
