MTSimple machines are basic mechanical devices with few or no moving parts that make work easier by multiplying force, reducing required effort, or changing the direction of motion. There are six classical types: the lever, wheel and axle, inclined plane, wedge, pulley, and screw. They utilize mechanical advantage to perform tasks.
Mechanical Advantage: The ratio of output force to input force; a higher advantage means less effort is required.
Work: While simple machines make work easier by reducing the necessary force, the total amount of work (force distance) remains the same.
Applications: These tools are used in daily life for tasks like cutting (wedge), lifting (pulley/lever), or fastening (screw).
