Q

Give an example of a simple machine and how it works?

A

Simple machines help us to work more easily.
-The RAMP is an INCLINED PLANE that helps us to move heavy things around.
-A PULLEY helps us pull sails up and down on sailboat.
-A KNIFE is a WEDGE that helps us cut food.
-A SCREW helps us to attach things and keep them in place.
A FERRIS WHEEL has a wheel and axle that helps the ferris wheel go around.
It helps change the objects position
