Yes, a merry-go-round is an example of a wheel and axle. The central pole acts as the axle, allowing the circular platform (the wheel) to rotate around it.
The equation for calculating the ideal mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle when the input force is applied to the axle is: Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) = Radius of Wheel / Radius of Axle where the radius of the wheel and axle are the distances from the center of rotation to where the force is applied.
A pulley is a grooved wheel that holds a cable or rope. It is used to change the direction of a force or to lift heavy objects by reducing the amount of force needed.
As the size of the wheel increases, the mechanical advantage of the wheel and axle system also increases. This is because a larger wheel allows for a larger distance to be covered with each rotation, resulting in less force required to achieve the same work. Therefore, larger wheels provide a greater mechanical advantage compared to smaller wheels.
wheel and axel . Lever.
Eight types of simple machines are wheel & axel, pulley, lever, screw, wedge, inclined plane, gears, and screw
I thiNk so
You could say a bike wheel is a wheel and axle. Also a doorknob is a wheel and axle.
a wheel and axel works by example if you have a wheel beral then your axel holds the wheel up to make it roll and i have some words of wisdom for you: DONT BE STUPID DONT DO DRUGS OR BE INAPROPRUET AND PLEAS TELL PEOPLE TO SHUT UP WHEN YOU ASK THEM A QUESTION AND THEY ANSWER YOUR MOM
an axel
One of two things: 1. The wheel moves the axel: The axel goes slower. 2. The axle moves the wheel: The Wheel goes faster.
nope
it turns the wheel
cnhabJKZ Yes. If the wheel and axel are connected so the they both turn together, then a small force applied to the large wheel will produce a larger force on the smaller axel. Example; wrap a string around a 12 inch (radius)wheel. wrap another string in the opposite direction around its 2 inch (radius) axel. Pull on the wheel string with a force of one pound, then the axel string will pull with a force of 6 pounds. The formula is; applied force on large wheel x its radius = pulling force on small axel x its radius ( F) x (2 in) = (1 lb) x (12 in) F = 6 lb
This is because the wheel IS THE WHEEL and the axel is the part that the wheel turns on!Hope this helps!
no it is not but a wheel and axel are
Wheel and Axel
a axel
