There are some many Simple machines but these are only 6.





This is a Wheel-barrow. It has a fulcrume, which is in the middle. I found it on my wheel-barrow. It makes work easier because it lefts up so it would make the work about 2 times easier.





This is a screw, which I found in my garage. It is used to put things together. It is an inclinded plane that is wraped around a clinder.






This is an ax, which is found in my garage. It is used to cut up wood. An ax is an inclinded plane, well, 2 inclinded planes but back to back. When it is like that, 2 inclinded planes, it is called a wedge. A wedge makes it easier, because it splits the work so it could make work easier.






























This is a Skate board, which has 4 wheels. I found it in my garage, the fulcrume is in the middle.
























This is a slide, which is an inclined plane. I found it on my little sis' play set. The inclined plane makes work a bit easier to go down or up things.












This is an old pully, which, is a pully. My mom found it in a really old barn. The pully makes work easier because it helps pull up heavy loads.

These are three more simple machines. They are: wedge, screw, and inclined plane. The wedge is two inclined planes placed back to back, with the force behind it. The load is split in half, breaking it down.

The screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. The force has to be more powerful than the effort.
The inclined plane is a sloped surface that makes work easier. By breaking it upword or downward in increments.

Blog #2: Fashion show


The things I made are as followed: a pair of earings and a ring. The earings came from an idea for a hair piece, but it ended up as a pair of earings. The earings had a not on it that could of been from a scanner.
The ring top is a glass/plastic cover for a light. I think it was for a blinder.
It was a fun project, but it took about a day or two. Everyone had fun, and so did I.

There are a ton of simple machines, there are 3 shown here. The three are: Lever, Pully, and Wheel & Axle. The lever is sometimes a compond machine. There are three classes of levers: 1st- Load, Fulcrum, and Effert. 2nd- Fulcrum, Load, and Effort. 3rd-Fulcrum, effort, and Load.
The pulley can change direction. But, it has three diferent things you need. A pulley, a rope(or cable), and a load. The load can be anything. A two wheel pulley has to have, well, two pulleys. You'll have to have two pulleys to pull a havier load.
The wheel & axle has a fulcrume in the middle. The wheel can be round, or rectanguler. There are a lot of different simple machines.
