2. TYPES OF MACHINES a) Depending on the

various simple machines joined together.

5 2. TYPES OF MACHINES a) Depending on the number of pieces: - Simple machines: They are made up of few pieces. A puley, a wheel, an inclined plane and a lever are simple machines. - Complex machines: They are made up of various simple machines joined together. A car, a phone and a computer are complex machines. We use a ramp to lift heavy objects We move from place to place by car, bus, plane... By Miguel A. Cabo Sánchez 5

B) Depending on the energy they use: - On some machines the energy comes from a person.

A sailing ship use energy from the sun and wind Example: A sailing ship.

People in wheelchairs need ramps A fridge use electricity C) Depending the use: - Mechanical machines: Mechanical machines

Others, such as a mixer are automatic and use electricity or fuel.

6 B) Depending on the energy they use: - On some machines the energy comes from a person. Example: A man carrying a wheel barrow. - In other cases, it is used the energy from the sun and wind. A sailing ship use energy from the sun and wind Example: A sailing ship. - Many machines around us work thanks to electricity. Example: A fridge. - Other machines use fuel. Example: A car. People in wheelchairs need ramps A fridge use electricity C) Depending the use: - Mechanical machines: Mechanical machines are used to move or lift heavy objects or to produce movement. Many mechanical machines, such as a stapler are manual. Others, such as a mixer are automatic and use electricity or fuel. - Heat engines: These machines are used for heating and cooling. - Machines to communicate and handle information: Electricity, electronics and information technology have created machines to communicate and create sounds, videos, texts, photos A mixer A heat machine A computer By Miguel A.

For example, in order to lift very heavy objects, you can use a crane which combines many

The Lever A lever is a rigid bar that has different forms and helps us to do different

On one part of the bar you exert a force and at another part of the bar you put a weight

10 3. SIMPLE MACHINES 3.1. The Pulley A pulley is a mobile wheel with a slot in which a rope or chain is inserted through. The pulley allows us to lift a heavy object in a easier way. The object is putted on one end of the rope or chain and someone A crane has many pulleys and lifts very heavy objects. pulls from the other end. When various pulleys are combined you can lift very heavy objects without force. For example, in order to lift very heavy objects, you can use a crane which combines many pulleys The Lever A lever is a rigid bar that has different forms and helps us to do different things. On one part of the bar you exert a force and at another part of the bar you put a weight that needs to be lifted, needs to be caught, opened etc. Pliers, a nutcracker, or tongs are force Point of support force examples of levers The Inclined Plane. An inclined plane is a ramp with certain slopes. It is used to lift or lower heavy objects with less effort than if we pull from them directly. Many mountains roads are inclined planes By Miguel A. Cabo Sánchez 10

4. Tools. Tools are machines that are used by carpenters, electricians, mechanics, and many other professions. For example, carpenters use saws, hammers, staplers, etc.

A hammer is used in different jobs Some machines require a person to work ( a hammer, a bike, a carriage, a screw...) and others need electr city or fuel ( a car, a ventilator, a computer...). Examples of simple machines are the pulley, the lever and the inclined plane.

11 4. Tools. Tools are machines that are used by carpenters, electricians, mechanics, and many other professions. For example, carpenters use saws, hammers, staplers, etc. Mechanics use wrenches and screwdrivers. Some tools, like a hammer, are simple machines.
