What six types of simple machines are levers wheels and axles?
lever, wheel and axle, screw, wedge, pulley, and inclined plane
Why are wedges and screws part of the inclined plane family of simple machines?
They are wedged on the edges
What two types of simple machines use inclined plane?
Inclined planes and wedges are both forms of inclined planes.
List of compound machines?
Compound machines are made up of two or more of the simple machines. These include pulleys, wedges, levers, wheels and axles, screws and gears, and inclined planes. Examples of compound machines include staplers, can openers, bicycles, and wheelbarrows.
Is a wrench a lever or wedge?
They are both simple machines. Lever- is a solid bar that rotates, or turns, around a fixed point. The bar can be straight or curved. The fixed point is called the fulcrum. wedge- is a simple machine that has a thick end and a thin end. Wedges are used to cut, split, or pierce objects- or hold objects together. It is a type of inclined plane, but inclined planes are stationary, while wedges often move to do work.
Screws and wedges are types of?
a screw and wedges are types of simples machines - are actually modified inclined planes....
What are the categories of simple machines?
the categories are levers, wheel and axel , pulleys,wedges, inclined planes, and screws.
Are wedges and screws examples of inclined planes?
Yes, wedges and screws are examples of inclined planes. A wedge is a double-inclined plane that can be used to lift or separate objects, while a screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder that allows for rotational motion to drive it into a surface.
What is made up of an inclined plane or pair of inclined planes that are moved?
wedges
What are the Differences between screws wedges and inclined planes?
a screw is basically an inclined plane wrapped around a pole, and an inclined plane is basically a ramp. a wedge is a double sided inclind plane and is mainly used to split things apart
What type of simple machine is it?
A simple machine is a mechanical device that changes the direction or magnitude of a force. Examples include levers, pulleys, inclined planes, wedges, screws, and wheels and axles.
How is a screw and a wedge a type of an inclined plane?
Screws and wedges are considered types of inclined planes because they have a slanted surface that allows them to exert a mechanical advantage when doing work. In the case of a screw, the inclined surface is wrapped around a cylinder. In the case of a wedge, the inclined surface is in the shape of a triangle.
What six types of simple machines are levers wheels and axles?
lever, wheel and axle, screw, wedge, pulley, and inclined plane
Why are wedges and screws part of the inclined plane family of simple machines?
They are wedged on the edges
Why are wedges and screws part of the inclined plane family of simple machine?

What kind of simple machine of a bulb?
A bulb is not a simple machine; it is an electrical device that produces light. Simple machines include levers, pulleys, inclined planes, screws, wedges, and wheels and axles.
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!
