9. The Inclined PlaneAn inclined plane is a flat surface that is higher on one end. You can use this machine to move an object to a lower or higher place.Inclined planes make the work of moving things easier. You would need less energy and force to move objects with an inclined plane.

10. The Inclined PlaneExamples of Inclined Planes:RampSlanted RoadPath up a HillSlide

11. The ScrewA screw is a simple machine that is made from another simple machine. It is actually an inclined plane that winds around itself.A screw has ridges and is not smooth like a nail. Some screws are used to lower and raise things. They are also used to hold objects together.

12. The ScrewExamples of the screw:Jar LidsLight BulbsStoolsClampsJacksWrenchesKey RingsSpiral Staircase

13. LeverA lever is a board or bar that rests on a turning point. This turning point is called the fulcrum.An object that a lever moves is called the load. The closer the object is to the fulcrum, the easier it is to move.

14. LeverExamples of the lever:A hammer is a lever when it is used to pull a nail out of a piece of wood.Bottle openersCrow bars

15. PulleyThis simple machine is made up of a wheel and a rope. The rope fits on the groove of the wheel.One part of the rope is attached to the load. When you pull on one side of the pulley, the wheel turns and the load will move.Pulleys let you move loads up, down, or sideways. Pulleys are good for moving objects to hard to reach places. It also makes the work of moving heavy loads a lot easier.

16. PulleyExamples of where pulleys can be used: Flag Poles Clothes Lines Sailboat Blinds Crane

17. Wheel and AxleYou have probably seen a wheel and axle on a car. The axle turns when you put force on the wheel.The axle is a rod that goes through the wheel. This lets the wheel turn. It is easy to move things from place to place with wheels and axles.

18. Wheel and AxleExamples of Wheels and Axles:CarsRoller SkatesWagonsDoor KnobsGears in Watches, Clocks, and Bicycles

19. WedgeA wedge is a simple machine used to push two objects apart. A wedge is made up of two inclined planes. These planes meet and form a sharp edge. This edge can split things apart.
