A nail clipper is considered a compound machine because it combines two simple machines: a lever and a wedge. The lever is used to amplify the force applied when pressing down on the handle, while the wedge is the sharp edge that cuts the nail. By working together, these components make the nail clipping process more efficient. Therefore, its design leverages the mechanical advantages of both simple machines.
