The resistance force is the log. It trys to stop the wedge of the axe. The effort force of the swinging axe helps it break through the log, breaking through its resistance.

What is the AMA formula of a wheel and axle?
whereR = resistance forceEactual = actual effort force, the force required to turn the wheel.
How does a wheel and axle change its force?
A wheel requires a smaller amount of force to be moved than an axle. Combined, a minimal amount of force is used to move the wheel and in turn is transferred from the wheel to the attached axle, to move the axle. Alone the axle would require a greater amount of force for it to be turned.
Why is it important that the diameter of the wheel be greater than the diameter of the axle in a wheel and axle?
because the wheel turns through a much greater distance than the axle.but the smaller turn of the axle is more powerful.witten by-brenda v.=========================Answer #2:-- The fact that the wheel turns through a greater distance that the axle doesis a result, not a cause, of the wheel being bigger than the axle.-- The axle is not more powerful than the wheel. Ignoring losses, they must bothhave the same power. The axle's force is greater than the wheel's force, but to payfor it, the axle must turn through greater distance. Same as all the lever stuff.-- The diameter of the wheel needs to be greater than the diameter of the axleonly if you'd prefer not to have the axle scrape on the ground.

Is screw driver a wedge or a wheel and axle?
If used properly, a screwdriver is a wheel and axle combination. If you use it to pry things, it can be a lever and if you pound it into something it serves as a wedge. A screw is a wedge with an incline plane.
