QuestionAnswer
bar of lever used to move objects by wedging
load of lever counter weight used to move objects
fulcrum of lever balancing point of lever to gain leverage
input arm of lever part of lever wedged under what is to be moved
output arm of lever part of lever weight is applied to move objects
inclined plane ramp used to make work easier
wheel and axle simple machine using motion of one wheel and lift
pulley simple machine that uses two wheels pulling in opposite directions
examples of forces/properties contact, balanced, magnetic, drag
examples of energy/properties kinetic, mechanical, potential

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
