how are compound machines, simple machines, and mechanical advantages related.

A lever is a simple machine that consists of a rigid bar supported at one point, known as the fulcrum. A force called the effort force is applied at one point on the lever in order to move an object, known as the resistance force, located at some other point on the lever. A common example of the lever is the crow bar used to move a heavy object such as a rock. To use the crow bar, one end is place… Simple Machines - Mechanical Advantage The term mechanical advantage is used to described how effectively a simple machine works. Mechanical advantage is defined as the resistance force moved divided by the effort force used. In the lever example above, for example, a person pushing with a force of 30 lb (13.5 kg) was able to move an object that weighed 180 lb (81 kg). So the mechanical advantage of the lever in that example was 180 lb… Simple Machines - Pulleys A pulley is a simple machine consisting of a grooved wheel through which a rope runs. The pulley can be thought of as a kind of lever if one thinks of the grooved wheel as the fulcrum of the lever. Then the effort force is the force applied on one end of the pulley rope, and the resistance force is the weight that is lifted at the opposite end of the pulley rope. In the simplest form of a pulley, … Simple Machines - Wheel And Axle A second variation of the lever is the simple machine known as a wheel and axle. A wheel and axle consists of two circular pieces of different sizes attached to each other. The larger circular piece is the wheel in the system, and the smaller circular piece is the axle. One of the circular pieces can be considered as the effort arm of the lever and the second, the resistance arm. The place at whic… Simple Machines - Inclined Planes An inclined plane is any sloping surface. Many people have used an inclined plane at one time or another when they tried to push a wheelbarrow or a dolly up a sloping board into a truck. One major difference between an inclined plane and a lever is that motion always takes place with the latter, but not with the former. The primary advantage of using an inclined plane is that it takes less effort … Simple Machines - Screws A screw can be considered to be an inclined plane that has been wrapped around some central axis. You can see this relationship by making an inclined plane out of paper and then wrapping the paper around a pencil. The spiral shaped form that you make is a screw. Screws can be used in two major ways. First, they can be used to hold things together. Some simple examples include wood and metal screws… Simple Machines - Compound Machines In many instances, the combination of two or more simple machines achieves results that cannot be achieved by a simple machine alone. Such combinations are known as compound machines. An example of a compound machine is the common garden hoe. The handle of the hoe is a lever, while the blade that cuts into the ground is a wedge. Machines with many simple machines combined with each other.
that alot of writing
LOL
I type really fast
really fast if u were able to type all of this in a few min
LOL
to put all this writing together the relationship between simple machines, compound machines, and mechanical advantages is it use machines form compound machines and simple machines to get the mechanical advantage.
let me know if im wrong i suck at physics
