A wheel and axle and a lever
The handles of a wheelbarrow would be the lever of the machine system. The wheel would be the fulcrum or center point. The part of the wheelbarrow that is used as a lever system is the operator. The operator lifts the handles and creates a lever.
A wheelbarrow is a lever and wheel and axle, so it is a compound machine.
It distributes weight upon a certain point, usually not on the user, to make moving objects easier; such as a wheelbarrow, pulley, inclined plane, etc.
A complex machine is a machine that is made up of two or more simple machines. Examples: Pencil sharpener, Washing machine, Wheelbarrow
a simple machine.
A tool or a simple machine
2nd class lever
A fulcrum.
A wheelbarrow uses a lever as a simple machine to lift a load. The handle of the wheelbarrow acts as the lever, allowing the user to exert a force to lift the load placed in the container.

A wheel and axle and a lever
Yes 2nd Answer: Actually, no it's not, because it's actually a compound machine that includes a lever and a wheel-and-axle.
The wheelbarrow is a lever because it pivots about a focal point called a fulcrum, in this case located at the wheel.
Anything with more than one simple machine in it is a compound machine. Since Wheelbarrows have both wheel-and-axle(one simple machine) and levers(Another simple machine), the wheelbarrow becomes a compound machine.
The handles of a wheelbarrow would be the lever of the machine system. The wheel would be the fulcrum or center point. The part of the wheelbarrow that is used as a lever system is the operator. The operator lifts the handles and creates a lever.
