Question | Answer |
Work | apply force times distance, labeled in Joules |
Power | labeled in watts or horsepower, work divided by time, rate of doing work |
Machine | multiplies force, force and distance are inverse, can change direction of force |
Work output | can not be greater than work input, increased by reducing friction or increasing work input |
Mechanical advantage | output force divided by input force |
IMA | problem, pulley |
Friction | decreases efficiency |
Efficiency | never 100%, always less, some input force always lost to friction, work output divided by work input |
Inclined plane | increases distance, ramp |
Wedge | 2 inclined planes, axe, as thickness increases IMA decreases |
Wheel and axle | doorknob |
Compound machine | includes more than one simple machine, bicycle |
Force | only does work if it applied in the direction of the motion |
Screw | inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder |
Levers | 3 classes, gears are continuous levers |
First class lever | fulcrum in middle |
Second class lever | output force in middle |
Third class lever | input force in middle, IMA always less than 1 |
Math problems | work, power, efficiency, |
