What is a machine made of wheels and string called?

It is called a pulley system. Pulleys consist of a wheel with a groove and a rope or belt that fits into the groove to transfer motion or lift objects.


When sheave groove is larger than the diameter of rope what will happen?

A sheave groove, such as the groove in a pulley, allows a rope or wire to pass through unhindered by friction or obstructions. The correct size sheave is required to minimize wear and tear on the rope or wire. When grooves become overly worn or are too large, they may allow excessive movement, which stresses the rope and reduces its life. A groove that is too small will compress the rope, breaking fibers or strands, and reducing the lifespan.


What is the difference between lever and pulley?

A lever is a simple machine consisting of a rigid rod or beam that pivots around a fixed point called a fulcrum to multiply force. A pulley is a simple machine that consists of a wheel with a groove around its circumference and a rope or belt that runs along the groove to lift or move objects. Essentially, levers are used to amplify force, while pulleys are used to change the direction of a force.


What has a grooved wheel with a rope running along the groove?

How is the long head of the biceps related to the inter-tubercular groove?

The long head of the biceps brachii muscle runs through the intertubercular groove of the humerus. This groove is located between the greater and lesser tubercles and serves as a channel for the tendon of the long head as it travels from the shoulder joint to its insertion on the radial tuberosity. The tendon is anchored by the transverse humeral ligament, which helps stabilize it within the groove during arm movements.

Where is the intertubercular sulcus?

The intertubercular sulcus is found at the front of your shoulder. To locate it, put your first three fingers in a row and walk them from the area between your breast and collarbone towards your shoulder. Just as you get them to the front of the "ball" part of your shoulder, you will feel a "drop off" and a sense that there's a tubular structure you can wiggle left and right. That is your intertubercular sulcus. It's also known as the bicipital groove.
