A scissor jack has:

  • An inclined plane that is wrapped around an axle to form the screw.
  • A lever that is formed by the handle which is used to turn the screw.
  • More levers that form the scissor mechanism that keeps the bottom square with the top as the jack raises the load.

What is the difference between a simple machine and a complex machine?

A simple machine is what it says, it's a very simple machine, made up of only one simple machine, such as a screw or a lever. A complex machine is more than one simple machine working together, instead of working alone.Simple machines are:ScrewInclined PlaneLevers (three different classes)PulleysWheel and AxelWedgeExamples of compound machines:DrillScissorsA simple machine has 1 part, while the complex machine is made up of many different parts.SIMPLE MACHINE : I machine that is simple and small most of the time .COMPLEX MACHINE : a machine that's complex .a simple machine makes the amount of force and effort you use in work easier.a compound machine is a numerous amount of simple machines put together to make work easier.a simple machine is one of the basic machines: wedge, lever, inclined plane, pulley, or a screw. a complex machine is any two or more of these used in collaboration.Complex machines are simply a series of simple machines working to achieve a single goal.

What are the six types of simple machines and describe the meaning of each simple machines?

The six simple machines are wedge, inclined plane, screw, the wheel and axle,lever and the pulley are the six simple machines. The inclined plane (you'll see why I started with this first) is simply a ramp or slope that reduces the amount of effort force needed to move the load. The wedge is two inclined planes put together back-to-back. A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a rod. The wheel and axle is a circle attached to a rod. A lever is a simple machine consisting of a rigid bar pivoted on a fixed point, called the fulcrum, and used to transfer the effort force in order to raise the load. There are three levers: Class 1,2,and 3. Last but not least, the pulley is a grooved wheel with a rope or chain running through it. There are two types of pulleys: fixed and moveable. There are two systems, both consisting of pulleys: the block and tackle and compound pulley. Hope this helped!
