When doing work you can decrease force by?

When doing work, you can decrease force by using simple machines like pulleys, levers, or ramps to distribute the force needed to perform the work. These machines help reduce the amount of force required to move an object by increasing the distance over which the force is applied. Additionally, using lubricants to reduce friction between surfaces can also decrease the force needed to do work.


What are some common questions about simple machines?

Some common questions about simple machines include: How do simple machines make work easier? What are the different types of simple machines? How do simple machines affect force and distance in work? How can simple machines be combined to create complex machines?


What is the link between machines and forces?

A Machine is something that helps do work. Work, in mechanics, is the amount of energy output over a distance. A force is what does the work, so a force acting over a distance does work...which is what machines help do. Further, the amount of time that a force takes to do work will determine the POWER output.


When two or more simple machines work together they are called a(n?

When two or more simple machines work together, they are called a compound machine. Compound machines are combinations of simple machines that work together to make tasks easier or more efficient. Examples include bicycles, wheelbarrows, and can openers.


How is a machine and work alike?

Machines and work are alike in that both involve the application of force to accomplish a task. Machines convert one form of energy into another to perform work, while work is the result of a force acting over a distance to move an object. Both machines and work involve transferring energy to achieve a specific goal.

How do lubricants improve efficiancy?

Efficiency means how much work is done; efficient means less work to accompish the same task. Lubricants reduce friction, thus reducing the work that must be done to accomplish a task.
