Simple Machines
The simple machine that makes a string/rope change direction?
In this step, you make an educated guess.
What is hypothesize or hypothesis.
What is an obtuse angle.
This is what you call making something move.
What is work.
This is the part of the lever that the beam moves on.
The simple machine that uses a long beam that pivots on a fulcrum.
What is a lever?
In this step, you explain the results by presenting everything you did.
What is Share Results.
This angle measures exactly 90°.
What is a right angle.
What is when you look over something again in order to correct or improve.
What is revision or revising?
The smallest person was able to lift Mr. Gru because of this.
What is spreading the force over a greater distance?
The simple machine that makes two objects move apart, or holds something in place.
What is a wedge.
In this step, you decide if your hypothesis was correct.
What is Analyze?
This angle measures 180°.
What is a straight angle or line.
The energy that makes molecules move.
What is heat?
This type of lever has the effort at one end, the fulcrum at the other, and the load in the middle.
What is a class 2 lever?
This is the simple machine that allows you to move an object up a slope to make it easier.
What is an incline plane.
In this step, you test your hypothesis.
What is experiment?
This angle measures LESS than 90°.
What is an acute angle.
Resistance to movement.
What is friction?
This is the part of a catapult that provides support and structure.
What is the frame?
This simple machine is found on all cars.
What is a wheel and axel.
In this step, you make careful observations and write down what happens.
What is Observe & Record.
This is the too you use to measure angles.
The energy needed to do work.
This class of lever has the effort/force BETWEEN the fulcrum and the load.
What is a class 3?
