What is the cassette of bicycle?
The gears on the rear wheel are called a cassette
Two simple machines that are part of a bicycle are a?
gears and wheel and axle
Is a bicycle and a vacuum cleaner simple machines?
Neither of them are simple machines. A vaccum cleaner is composed of several simple machine, (I don't really know what) and a bicycle is composed of a wheel and axle (the two wheels), pulleys (the gears), and levers (Brake handles and pedals).
What simple machine are in a computer?
Wheel and Axle to some extent for the hard drives. There are many screws that are used to hold the parts together. Pulleys and gears are in the CD-Rom Drive. I am sure there are others.
A bicycle is a compound machine made up of which simple machines?
A bicycle consists mainly of Wheel and axles, levers, screws
What are the difference type of simple machine?
screws, levers, wedges, wheel & axles, incline plane, gears, pulleys
How are bicycle gears and sprockets related?
A sprocket is another name for a toothed wheel that meshes with the chain.
Are bicycle gears a pulley?
lever at crank, connected by chain to lever at rear wheel
Example of a wheel and axle?
steering wheeltire wheelsA wagon
How bicycles works?
A bicycle is one of the most efficient forms of transport. It works with pedals, which are connected via a chain to the back wheel. The rotation of the pedals moves the chain across gears on the rear wheel, rotating it. To change the gear ratio, the chain is moved to different sized gears of the wheel. The steering works by rotating the front wheel using the handle bars, reorienting the bicycle in a different direction. The brakes work with cables, pulling two rubber plates against the wheel. Newer models have circular plates, which lock onto the spokes of the wheel. This prevents the rubber from being worn down, and is more efficient.Manpower.Bicycle uses mechanical energy. It takes the principle of axle and chain. When we paddle, the chain rotates the axle and the wheel also revolves.The pedals on a bike are connected to a gear that turns the chain. The chain is also connected to a gear that is attached to, and therefore turns, the rear wheel. The rear gears are set up so that when turning forward the will turn the wheel but when turning backward or not moving at all the gears have no effect on the wheel. Different gears are used to gain more speed - a larger gear at the front means the smaller gear at the back will turn faster.bicycles work through a series of gears and pulleys that move when you petal your petals. When they move the gears and pulleys move thus making the wheels move, propelling you forward so long as you're balanced. that is how a bicycle works.
What type of simple machine is a bicycle gears?
I'd say the gears on a bike acts as levers, as pedals and driven wheel turns with different speeds and force.
Where are simple gears used?
An example of simple gears is the chain, chain-wheel and free-wheel sprocket as used on a single geared bicycle. More complicated gearing is the modern bicycle's derailleur system of multiply chain-wheels, a cluster of sprockets, a chain, and gear changer mechanism.
