Across
- 2. wheel with a rope, chain, or belt around it
- 4. the kind of lever where the load is between the effort and the fulcrum; ex. wheelbarrow
- 8. a simple machine consisting of two connected objects with different radiuses
- 10. the amount of real work done over the ideal work calculated; losses are due to friction
- 13. the ratio of output force to input force
- 14. an inclined plane wrapped around a shaft
Down
- 1. a machine with few moving parts that is used to gain mechanical advatage; There are 6 types of these.
- 3. a sloped surface used to gain mechanical advantage
- 5. the fixed point of rotation on a lever
- 6. the kind of lever where the effort is between the load and the fulcrum; ex. fishing pole
- 7. the kind of lever where the fulcrum in between the effort and load; ex. see-saw
- 9. a simple machine composed of a bar rotating about a fixed point to gain mechanical advatange
- 11. and inclined plane used to split or hold objects in place
