What is the function of a wheel and axle?
The wheel and axle is a simple machine. It is consists of a wheel that turns an axle and in turn a rope converts the rotational motion to linear motion for the purpose of lifting.
How are wheel and axle pulley and gears alike?
Because wheel and axle pulley and gear are simple machines
What simple machine is a bottle cap?
wheel and axle
What are two simple machines in a luggage cart?
wheel and axle and screw
In a wheel and axle simple machine why is it important that the diameter of the wheel be greater than the diameter of the axle?
what kind of stupid question is this? if the dia of the axle is larger then that of the wheels, the axle becomes the wheel and the "wheels" become the axle
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.
When does a wheel and axle have a mechanical advantage greater than one?
When the radius of the wheel is larger than the radius of the axle - which is almost always true.When the radius of the wheel is larger than the radius of the axle - which is almost always true.When the radius of the wheel is larger than the radius of the axle - which is almost always true.When the radius of the wheel is larger than the radius of the axle - which is almost always true.
What is the mechanicatage advantage of a wheel and axle when the wheel has a diameter of 15 inchesand the axle has a diameter of 3 inches?
the mechanical advantage is noting
What is the scientific definition of a wheel and axle?
an axle to which a wheel is fastened so that torque applied to the wheel winds a rope or chain onto the axle, yielding a mechanical advantage equal to the ratio of the diameter of the wheel to that of the axle.
How are a lever and a wheel and axle similar?
To find the Mechanical Advantage you would have to divide.The equation for Lever is: MA = Length of effort arm--------------------------------Length of resistance armThe equation for Wheel and axle is: MA = Diameter of wheel-------------------------Diameter of axleORMA = Diameter of axle-----------------------Diameter of wheel* Depending on where the force is applied.A wheel is just like a bunch of levers arranged in a circle with the fulcrum at the center of the wheel. The axle is like the short end of the lever.One degree of rotation of the axle results in one degree of rotation of the wheel; this is just like rotating the short end of the lever to movethe long end.
How does the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle changes as the size of the wheels increase?
The velocity factor of a wheel depends on its diameter. If we take the velocity factor as a measure of how far the vehicle moves in one revolution of the wheel, then it is equal to the circumference of the wheel, which is pi times the diameter.
How does the mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle change as the size of the wheel increases?
The velocity factor of a wheel depends on its diameter. If we take the velocity factor as a measure of how far the vehicle moves in one revolution of the wheel, then it is equal to the circumference of the wheel, which is pi times the diameter.
What is the formula of velocity ratio of a wheel and differential axle?
velocity ratio= 2D/(d1 - d2) , where D = diameter of effort wheel,d1&d2= diameter of the axles.
What is the idea mechanical advantage of a wheel with a diameter of a 30 cm fixed to an axle with a diameter of 4 cm if the axle is turned?
The ideal (not idea) mechanical advantage is 30/4 = 7.5
On a wheel and axle where would you apply force to make a greater force?
Probably on the axle??
What is the mechanical advantage of a a wheel and axel?
The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the ratio of the radius of the wheel to the radius of the axle. Ex:- Suppose the radius of the wheel is four times greater than the radius of the axle, every time you turn the wheel once, your force will be multiplied four times.
