Is a hair brush a simple machine?

Lever: The handle of a hairbrush acts as a lever. When you hold the handle and press the bristles against your hair, you're using the lever principle to exert force and detangle or style your hair. Wheel and Axle: The base of the hairbrush, where the bristles are attached, can be thought of as a wheel and axle. When you move the brush through


What simple machines are in a snowboard?

The wheel and axle are easily spotted on any skateboard. It could be argued that there is a lever created by the deck and the axle assembly because of the way the truck works. The truck supports the axle hanger on a "pillow" or "cushion" (a pair of bushings, grommets or rubbers -- you choose your own term), usually made of an elastomer, which allows the hanger (the part that the axle runs through) to move relative to the base of the truck, and, therefore, the deck. The wheels spin on the axles, as is intuitively obvious. The line of the axle is parallel to the flat surface of the deck when the deck is not loaded. When a skateboarder rides the deck, however, the deck can be tilted via the lever action. The line of the axle remains parallel to flat ground, but the plane of the deck tilts to one side or the other. The fulcrum is the fastener (the bolt, called a kingpin) that holds the axle assembly (the hanger) onto the base of the truck. The load is the "resistance" of the bushings. The lever is a 2nd class one, by the way, like a wheel barrow, and not a 1st class one, like a claw hammer being used to pull a nail.


What is triangulation of structures?

TriangulationTriangulation is a structure that is used on bridges and they are made up of lots of little triangles.Triangles are so strong because they have a bigger base then their tops. All of the weight and the force that is pushing down is at the bottom of the triangle. The weights are then added in decreasing weight until the lightest weight is on top. It is the strength of the base that makes triangles very strong. If they were to use squares instead of triangles that structure will collapse because, the force of the bridge will go equally on the 4 sides of the square and the force will push down a side of the square and move it. So it wont be stable.


What is a nonfusion welding?

it should be called solid state welding which does not melt the base... in fusion welding the base melts as you weld.


If the weld does not combine with another weld or the base metal it is referred to as?

Lack of fusion and inadequate penetration.
