What are two simple machines that are part of a bicycle called?

Two simple machines that are part of a bicycle are the wheel and axle and the lever. The wheel and axle allow the bicycle to move forward by rotating, while the lever system is used in the brakes and gears to increase or reduce force applied by the rider.


How does a bicycle use force gravity and friction?

A bicycle uses gravity by pulling the rider and the bike downwards, helping to propel the bike forward when going downhill or gaining speed. Friction between the tires and the ground allows the bike to grip the road and move forward, while also providing stability when turning or braking. The force generated by pedaling provides the necessary propulsion to overcome friction and continue moving forward.


When a horse pulls a wagon the force that causes the horse ti move forward is the force.?

When a horse pulls a wagon, the force that causes the horse to move forward is the force of traction generated by the hooves gripping the ground. This force propels the horse and wagon forward by overcoming the friction between the hooves and the ground.


Why it is eay to balance bicycle in motion then at rest?

It is easier to balance a bicycle rolling forward than at rest because when rolling forward, you can move the support points, the tire contact patches, from side to side merely by steering the front wheel and thus keep them under the center of mass.


Is propulsion a force?

Propulsion is the force that moves an object forward. It is the result of applying force to the object in the opposite direction it needs to move. For example, in a rocket, propulsion is generated by expelling propellant gases backwards, causing the rocket to move forward.

How can a force produce motion on a bicycle?

Pushing down on the pedal will cause the bike to move forward.


When you ride a bicycle what forces can overcome inertia?

When you ride a bicycle, the force of the wheel against the earth causes the earth to push back on the wheel, propelling the bike forward, according to Newton's law of equal and opposite reactions. If the force exerted by the earth is strong enough, it can overcome the inertia of the bike.


What is the purpose of the bike pedal crank and how does it contribute to the overall functionality of a bicycle?

The bike pedal crank is the part of the bicycle that connects the pedals to the chainring, allowing the rider to transfer their leg power into forward motion. It serves as a lever that multiplies the force applied by the rider's legs, making it easier to pedal and move the bike forward. In essence, the pedal crank is essential for propelling the bicycle and making it move efficiently.


What is the force that says that an object that is moving forward will continue to move forward unless another force stops it?

It is the force of inertia.

What makes a helicopter move forward?

The main rotor is tilted forward.


What is done when force makes an object move?

When a force makes an object move, work is done.


How does a bicycle stay upright when moving?

A combination of inertia and centrifugal force. The wheels, once rotating, create centrifugal force which in conjunction with gravity cause the bicycle to move forward creating inertia. the more energy put into the bike via the drivetrain, the more inertia is created and the more stable the bike becomes.

Which force makes the leaves of plants move?

The natural force wind makes the leaves plants move.

What force makes us move forward when a car suddenly stops?

This is not a force, but your conservation of momentum. For there to be a force, you must have some acceleration, but what you feel is actually your body attempting to continue moving forward until the force of friction and force normal of your seat belt decelerate you.
