A can opener's blade is a wedge because it redirects energy by pushing the metal can top to the side. It also has a gear, which is a toothed wheel. The actual handle of the can opener (if it spins) is a wheel and axel which is explains itself. If you were taught a screw is a simple machine, it has plenty of those. The whole can opener together is a lever because your wrist joint if is the fulcrum, the end of it is the load, and your hand's energy that's pushing it is the effort. Answer your question?
