When a screwdriver is inserted into a screw, it creates a mechanical connection that allows the user to apply torque. The shape of the screwdriver's tip matches the screw's head, ensuring a secure fit that enables the turning motion needed to drive the screw into or out of a material. This action converts the rotational force applied by the user into linear force, enabling the screw to penetrate the surface. Proper alignment is crucial for effective use, as misalignment can strip the screw head or damage the material.
