Key Term: MACHINE

FILL IN -------------------

Q. How do the following every day objects serve as machines to make work easier? FILL IN ------------------- Example 1: Bottle Opener Example 2: Rake Example 3: Wheelchair Ramp

Machines Make Work Easier

.

Work = Force × distance, or W = Fd.

Example: Moving van

Lifting straight up vs.

Using a ramp.

Q. What will the work be if the ramp increases the distance moved to 6m but you only apply a force of 200N?

DEFINITION: A machine is any device that ___________________

1. Machines do not_________________the amount of _______ that

needs to be done, they just make work ____________by changing

the __________ it is done.

2. Recall that WORK = ___________ x _____________

3. So machines can change the _______________ and __________

so long as the total work (force x distance) does NOT change.

Answer:

Bottle Opener: Makes opening a bottle easier because it multiplies

the ______________ of your hands.

Rake: Makes gathering leaves easier because you when you move

the handle end just a little ________________ the rake end

moves a large _____________. So it multiplies the

_____________ moved by your hands.

Wheelchair Ramp: It is much easier to push a wheelchair up a ramp

than to lift it up a flight of stairs, because the ramp increases the

____________ over which the wheelchair moves and decreases the

_________________ required to move it.

A machine can change the strength or direction of a force

So, if you want to increase the __________ to move something, you must

(in order to keep the total amount of work done the same) also decrease

the _____________ moved.

Moving van Example:

a) LIFTING STRAIGHT UP:

Force required to lift heavy box = 800 N

Distance lifted from ground to truck bed = 1.5 m

Work = Fd = 800N x 1.5 m = 1200 J

Let’s say you can’t lift 800N – you are not strong enough. b) USING A RAMP:

Force required is only 200N

Distance will now be the length of the ramp = 6 m
