Is a screw an example of a ramp?
No a ramp is an inclined plane while a screw is an inclined plane spinning in a spiral around a rod; the two are considered different simple machines but in a sense u could say they are the same
Why do logos of pharmacies have snakes on them?
there are two symbols associated with medicine with snakes on them. 1: rod of Asclepius: it is a pole with a single snake wrapped around it. it is a ancient greek symbol associated with astrology and with healing the sick through medicine. 2: Caduceus: it is a pole with wings at the top with two snakes wrapped around it. It is the wand of Hermes. although this is historically incorrect it is believed to have become associated with medicine because of its link with alchemy (hermes being the god of alchemy).
Decscribe the structure of an electromagnet?
Okay - it's going to be difficult to do an accurate diagram on here - so bear with me...An electromagnet consists basically of a piece of metal surrounded by a coil of wire, which is connected to a power source. The simplest form would be an iron rod which has a piece of wire wrapped around it (about ten) coils should do it. The ends of the wire are attached to a 9 volt battery.Ignore the dots in the following diagram - they're just to stop the spaces being removed by the forum !...____|+ -|____| ................... || ................... ||___/\/\/\____|It's a bit crude - but I think it's understandable. Basically, you connect the battery (+ -) with a continuous piece of wire. Wrap the wire around an iron rod - the '/\/\/\'. This induces a current in the rod, while the power is connected.

How can an electromagnet be made stronger?
An electromagnet can be made stronger by: - A bigger iron rod. - A bigger battery/more batteries - More coils around the iron rod. - A bigger magnet. - Increase the current flowing through the coil. - Put in a soft iron core.
If an air bubble was trapped in a metal rod would it affect the rod's density?
Yes, the overall density would be less than if the rod were pure metal.
What is a modified version of a inclined plane?
It is a screw. A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a rod
Which inclined plane wrapped round a rod?
curtains
What is wrapped around a screws rod?
The part of a screw that is wrapped around the central shaft of the screw is normally called a thread. It can be described technically as an inclined plane.
What do you call an inclined plane that wraps around a spiral rod?
This is a simple machine called a screw.

What kind of simple machine is nut and bolt?
They are types of screws which are actually inclined planes that curve around the outside of a rod and the interior of a cylinder. Instead of anchoring into a surface, a bolt passes through a hole and is locked in place by the nut. At its most basic, it is an inclined plane. That inclined plane formed by the threads of the bolt is wrapped around an axle and the nut provides a mechanical advantage by being a lever (The force arm is the nut's radius). The lever can be extended (a wrench) to provide greater mechanical advantage.

How do you use a curling iron with no clamp?
this type of curling rod is meant for longer hair lengths.the hair is wrapped around the rod, starting in the middle of the hair shaft, and wrapping the strand around the rod to the ends,to make a loose, flowing wavy look.
How does an eletromagnet work?
The eletromagnet works by the energy flowing through the wire wrapped around the iron rod that causes the magnetic field
