What is Understanding Wheel and Axle Mechanics about?
The wheel and axle is a simple machine that uses a wheel to multiply torque applied to an axle. It decreases the amount of friction needed to move an object across a surface. Mechanical advantage is calculated by dividing the radius of the wheel by the radius of the axle. Pulleys are circular levers that change the direction of force or multiply force. Fixed pulleys provide no mechanical advantage while movable and compound pulleys provide advantages of 2 or more by using multiple ropes or cables to lift a
