Question
Answer
Air Foil   A surface designed to contribute to the control of an object in flight  
🗑
Application   Putting an object, system or procedure into use or practice  
🗑
Chemical Energy   associated with the composition of a substance.  
🗑
Distance   a measurement between two objects or points, in any direction, including three-dimensional space  
🗑
Driving   a force that pushes or propels an object, component or system  
🗑
Elastic Energy   It is associated with the stretching or compressing of an elastic object.  
🗑
Electrical energy   It is associated with an electric current in a circuit.  
🗑
Energy   the ability to do work  
🗑
First Class Lever   A lever with a pivot point (fulcrum) in the middle, between the input and output forces  
🗑
Force   A type of exertion on an object or system due to the interaction with another object, system or human  
🗑
Fulcrum   the pivot point of a lever  
🗑
Gravitational Energy   It is associated with the height of an object above a reference point.  
🗑
Inclined Plane   A type of simple machine used to change the height of an object by rolling or sliding, as in a ramp  
🗑
Lever   A simple machine comprised of a bar with a pivot around a point. At point A, a force is applied, using the pivot at B to provide force at point C.  
🗑
Light Energy   It is associated with the frequency of electromagnetic waves.  
🗑
Motion energy   It is associated with the speed of an object.  
🗑
Power Systems   A system of components used to complete a specific rate of work in a given time  
🗑
Power   The rate of work done over time, P=W/t with P=power, W=work and t = time. An example of power is mph - miles per hour, the amount of power needed to travel a certain number of miles in an hour.  
🗑
Propulsion   a force that moves an object forward  
🗑
Pulley   a type of simple machine that incorporates a rimmed wheel which holds a line and can turn within a frame to change the direction of a force  
🗑
Rate   A speed or pace, as compared to the overall total  
🗑
Screw   A simple machine that incorporates an inclined plane wrapped around a central pole  
🗑
Second Class Lever   A lever that has the output force or load between the fulcrum and input force  
🗑
Thermal Energy   It is associated with the temperature of an object.  
🗑
Third Class Lever   A lever that has the input force between the output force and the fulcrum.  
🗑
Wedge   A simple machine similar to the inclined plane, but intended to push objects apart  
🗑
Wheel and Axle   A wheel with a central rod or axle that turns, allowing the wheel to turn  
🗑
Work   Activity completed in order to achieve a specific purpose or result  
🗑
