The tool would be either a table saw or a radial arm saw with the blade rotated parallel to the fence. The type of cut is called a rip (as opposed to against the grain, which is called cross-cut).

It is said to not cut wood against the grain as an old wives' tale. The main reason that wood is cut with the grain is because it only needs to slightly touch the fibers of the wood to cut it, so it is easier.
