The inclined plane was likely created before the wedge, as it is a simpler concept involving a sloped surface that reduces the effort needed to lift objects. The wedge, which is essentially two inclined planes back-to-back, requires an understanding of the inclined plane's mechanics. Historical evidence suggests that the use of inclined planes predates the development of wedges in various ancient civilizations.

Explain how a wedge and a screw are related to the inclined plane?
A wedge is a type of inclined plane that has two inclined surfaces meeting at a sharp edge. The screw is a type of inclined plane wrapped around a cylindrical shaft. Both the wedge and the screw utilize the principle of an inclined plane to multiply force and make it easier to perform tasks like splitting wood with a wedge or holding materials together with a screw.
