Question
Answer
potencia/power   cantidad de trabajo realizado en un segundo;se mide en vatios (W)/amount of work done, or the amount of energy transferred, divided by the time required to do the work or transfer the energy; meaasured in watts (W)  
🗑
trabajo/work   la energia transferida cuando una fuerza mueve un cuerpo/transfer of energy that occurs when a force makes an object move; measured in joules.  
🗑
fuerza de entrada/input force   fuerza que se aplica a una maquina/force exerted on a machine  
🗑
fuerza de salida/output force   fuerza aplicada por una maquina/force applied by a machine  
🗑
maquina/machine   aparata que facilita el trabajo/device that makes doing work easier by increasing the force applied to an object, changing the direction of an applied force, or increasing the distance over which a force can be applied  
🗑
rendimiento/efficiency   medida de la cantidad de trabajo aplicado a una maquina que se convierte en trabajo de salida util por la maquina; se expresa como porcentaje/ratio of the output work done by the machine to the input work done on the machine, expressed as a percentage  
🗑
ventaja mecanica(VM)/mechanical advantage(MA)   razon de la fuerza de salida a la fuerza de entrada/ratio of the output force exerted by a machine to the input force applied to the machine  
🗑
cuna/wedge   plano inclinado con uno o dos lados inclinados/simple machine that is an inclined plane with one or two sloping sides  
🗑
maquina compuesta/compound machine   dos o mas maquinas simples que operan juntas/machine that is a combination of two or more simple machines  
🗑
maquina simple/simple machine   maquina que realiza trabajo con un solo movimiento de la maquina/machine that does work with only one movement--lever, pulley, wheel and axle, inclined plane, screw, and wedge  
🗑
palanca/lever   barra libre de pivotear or de girar alrededor de un punto fijo/simple machine consisting of a bar free to pivot about a fixed point called the fulcrum  
🗑
plano inclinado/inclined plane   superficie inclinada que reduce la cantidad de fuerza requeria para realizar trabajo/simple machine that consists of a sloping surface such as a ramp, that reduces the amount of force needed to lift something  
🗑
polea/pulley   rueda acanalada con una cuerda, candena o cable que corre por el canal/simple machine that consists of a grooved wheel with a rope, chain, or cable running along the groove;can be fixed or movable  
🗑
rueda y eje/wheel and axle   maquina simple que consiste en un tunel, a eje, conectado al centro de una rueda mas grande para que la rueda y el eje roten juntos/simple machine that consists of a shaft and axle attached to the center of a larger wheel;shaft and wheel rotate together  
🗑
tornillo/screw   plano inclinado envuelto en un espiral alrededor de un cilindro/simple machine that consists of an inclined plane wrapped in a spiral around a cylindrical post  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
