    The mechanical advantage of the machine built was 29.2. Each simple machine incorporated in the design added to the mechanical advantage. The fixed pulley system had an advantage of one because the pulley changed the rubber band’s direction once. The three sets of wheel and axles used each provided a 8.4 mechanical advantage. The two gear sets produced a mechanical advantage of two: one from each gear…

    Wheel and axle is two disks or cylinders, each one with a different radius. They are used in a chain reaction where the wheel has something done to it to make the axle turn. They are used in cars and door knobs. An inclined plane is a plane that’s inclined at an angle. They are used to make work easier over a longer distance. They work by making someone go further to have less strain from being horizontal or vertical. Some examples of this is a hill, slides, and ladder. A lever is a bar that helps move heavy loads. They can transfer effort and work. They work by pushing on one side with weight on the other. Copies of this is teeter totters and wheel barrows. A wedge looks like a slice of cake or pizza but is usually wood or metal and is 3D. They are used to cut wood and can do many other things like hold doors open. They work by separating or holding items together. A screw is a cylinder with an inclined plane wrapped around it. It does work by pressing things together or putting things together. For example, they can press fruit making juice and books. A pulley is a wheel with a rope that lifts heavy weights. This can make work easier when oneself wants something from off the ground higher. They do work by getting pulled on one side to bring the object up. They can be used in construction to move like metal and…

    Among those inventions that are credited with passing into general practical use are the strut bridge, the automated bobbin winder, the rolling mill, the machine for testing the tensile strength of wire and the lens-grinding machine pictured at right. In the lens-grinding machine, the hand rotation of the grinding wheel operates an angle-gear, which rotates a shaft, turning a geared dish in which sits the glass or crystal to be crushed. A single action rotates both surfaces at a speed ratio determined by the…

    Levers In Ancient Egypt

    • 737 Words
    • 3 Pages

    With a class one lever, the direction of force is changed. Some examples of class one levers include tin snips, scissors, and crowbars. Class one levers make work easier by moving the load a larger distance using less effort. For example it states, “As the load moves closer to the fulcrum, the effort must move a greater distance and the load is lifted a short distance.” This applies to when the…

    A crank that can be turned by hand is attached to one of the handles. The axle of the crank goes through the handle and has the traction gear attached to the other side. When you use the can opener to open a can, you separate the handles of the opener, place the traction gear beneath the lip of the can and the cutting wheel above it, then bring the handles together, holding the lip of the can between the traction gear and the cutting wheel. Then you can turn the crank to turn the traction gear and propel the cutting wheel around the rim of the can.…

    Mechanical advantage

    • 506 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Mechanical advantage is a measure of the force amplification achieved by using a tool, mechanical device or machine system. Ideally, the device preserves the input power and simply trades off forces against movement to obtain a desired amplification in the output force. The model for this is the law of the lever. Machine components designed to manage forces and movement in this way are called mechanisms. An ideal mechanism transmits power without adding to or subtracting from it. This means the ideal mechanism does not include a power source, and is frictionless and constructed from rigid bodies that do not deflect or wear. The performance of a real system relative to this ideal is expressed in terms of efficiency factors that take into account friction, deformation and wear.…

    Gears

    • 16 Pages

    Gears are the most common means of transmitting power in mechanical engineering. There are tiny gears for devices like wrist watches and there are large gears that some of you might have noticed in the movie like Titanic. Gears from vital elements of mechanisms in many machines such as vehicles, metal tooling machine tools, rolling mills, hoisting and transmitting machinery, marine engines, and the like. Toothed gears are used to change the speed, power, and direction between an input and output shaft. Gears have existed since the invention of rotating machinery. Because of their force-multiplying properties, early engineers used them for hoisting heavy loads such as building materials.…

    The experiment was done with the purpose to analyze systems in equilibrium using the second condition of equilibrium and to distinguish some of its use and significance. In the experiment we analyzed systems and how it is applied. After performing the experiment, I can therefore conclude that the torque is affected by the forces acting on the system and their radial distance from the axis of rotation, the shorter the lever arm the greater the force, the longer the lever arm the lesser the force.…

    Resolution of vector

    • 454 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Vectors can be added experimentally using a force table. The force table consists of a machined metal or plastic plate mounted on a stand. The plate has angular markings and a centering pin. Pulleys are attached to the plate and aligned with the angular markings. Weights hung from the pulleys exert forces on a centering ring. When the forces are balanced, the centering ring is aligned with the centering pin on the force plate. The directions of the force vectors can be ascertained from the angular positions of the pulleys, and the magnitudes from the values of the hanging masses.…
