Pulleys and inclined Planes

An inclined plane reduces the amount of force needed to move an object by - increasing the distance the object moves. transferring more of the force to the object reversing the direction the object is moved. decreasing the amount of work needed to be done Which of the following decreases when an object is moved using an inclined plane? The distance the object moves. The amount of work. The amount of force needed to move the object. none of the above A flag pole is an example of a(n)- pulley inclined plane screw lever The diagram provided shows a fixed pulley system. A fixed pulley does not change the amount of effort needed to lift the load, but it does change the- direction of the force. volume of the force. weight of a load. the amount of work accomplished. The tool used to measure force is called a- Triple Beam Balance Spring Scale Graduated Cylinder Seive Stairs are an example of a(n)- Pulley Inclined Plane Lever Wedge Which of the following does a simple machine do? reduce the amount of work needed to do work reduce the amount of force needed to do work both are correct You have learned about two simple machines: inclined planes and pulleys. An inclined plane is a sloping surface that connects two different surfaces. A pulley consists of one or more wheels and a rope. Both can help you move heavy objects. The most obvious kind of inclined plane is a ramp. A simple pulley changes the direction of the force on an object.
