- machine A machine formed from a set of simple machines connected in series with the output force of one providing the input force to the next. For example a bench vise consists of a lever in series with a screw, and a simple gear train consists of a number of gears connected in series.
- pair A connection between two bodies that imposes constraints on their relative movement.
- A machine consisting of a beam or rigid rod pivoted at a fixed hinge, or fulcrum.
- motion The motion along a straight line, and can therefore be described mathematically using only one spatial dimension.
