In science, the word work has a different meaning than you may be familiar with.
The scientific definition of work is: using a force to move an object a distance (when both the force and the motion of the object are in the same direction.)
What is work?

History of Work
Before engines and motors were invented, people had to do things like lifting or pushing heavy loads by hand. Using an animal could help, but what they really needed were some clever ways to either make work easier or faster.
![Page 9: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Simple MachinesAncient people invented simple machines
that would help them overcome resistive forces and allow them to do the desired work against those forces.
![Page 10: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The six simple machines are: Lever Wheel and Axle Pulley Inclined Plane Wedge Screw
Simple Machines
![Page 11: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A machine is a device that helps make work easier by accomplishing one or more of the following functions: Increasing the magnitude of a forceIncreasing the distance of a forceIncreasing the speed of a force Changing the direction of a forceTransferring a force from one place
to another
Simple Machines
![Page 12: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Input force (the force you apply)
Output force (force which the machine applies to the task).
When a machine takes a small input force and increases the magnitude of the output force, a Mechanical Advantage has been produced.
Mechanical Advantage
![Page 13: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Friction is ignored when calculating IMA.
IMA > 1 means it increases force Each machine calculates IMA differently
As we cover each machine, put the IMA formula on the grid sheet for that machine
Ideal Mechanical Advantage
![Page 14: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
AMA is the ratio of output force/input force (R/E).
If an input force of 20 newtons and the output force of 100 newtons, the machine has an Actual Mechanical Advantage (AMA) of 5.
AMA = R / E Formula is the SAME for all machinesFriction decreases the AMA.
Actual Mechanical Advantage
![Page 15: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
No machine can increase both the magnitude and the distance of a force at the same time.
There is no such thing as a free lunch
![Page 16: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The Lever A lever is a rigid bar that rotates
around a fixed point called the Fulcrum.
Effort Force supplied by you Resistance Force: force supplied
by the machine to move something
There are 3 Classes of levers
![Page 17: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The 3 Classes of LeversThe class of a lever is
determined by the location of the effort, resistance and fulcrum.
![Page 18: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Types of Levers
• Note the location of the F, E and R for each type of lever
• For all levers the following formulas are correct
• IMA = LE/LR = divide the length of the Effort arm by the length of the Resistance arm (both measured from force to the fulcrum)
• AMA = Resistance / Effort .
![Page 19: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The fulcrum is located at some point between the effort and resistance forces.
Common examples of first-class levers include see-saw, crowbar, scissors, pliers, tin snips
A first-class lever ALWAYS changes the direction of force .
First Class Lever
![Page 20: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
FIRST CLASS LEVERS The Fulcrum is between E and R . If F is closer to R the Effort moves farther than Resistance, multiplies E and changes its direction
![Page 21: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
the Resistance is located between the fulcrum and the Effort.
Common examples of second-class levers include nut crackers, wheel barrows and bottle openers.
Advantage: Always increases the forceNever changes the direction of force.
SECOND CLASS LEVERS
![Page 22: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
R is between fulcrum and E. Effort moves farther than Resistance. Multiplies force, but NEVER changes its direction
![Page 23: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Effort is between Fulcrum and Resistance Cannot increase the force Resistance moves farther than Effort. Multiplies the distance or speed that the effort force travels
![Page 24: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Effort is applied between the Fulcrum and the Resistance.
Examples of third-class lever: tweezers, a rake and your arm
Never changes the direction of the force
Always produces a gain in speed and distance
Always DECREASES the force
Third Class Lever

Wheel and Axle
The wheel and axle is a large wheel rigidly secured to a smaller wheel or shaft, called an axle.
When the wheel or axle is turned, the other part also turns. One full revolution of either part causes one full revolution of the other .
![Page 26: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
IMA = Radius(wheel)

Pulleys
Can change the direction of a force
or Can gain a Mechanical
Advantage depending on how the pulley(s) is(are) arranged.
![Page 28: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Fixed PulleyFixed pulley :if it does
not rise or fall with the load being moved. A fixed pulley changes the direction of a force; however, it does not increase the force.
![Page 29: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Moveable PulleyA Moveable pulley
rises and falls with the load that is being moved. A single moveable pulley creates an IMA of 2. It does not change the direction of a force.
The IMA of a moveable pulley is equal to the number of ropes that support the moveable pulley. Pulling down strand does not count.
![Page 30: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Compound Pulley systems
Composed of at least 1 fixed and 1 moveable pulley linked
IMA = # of supporting strands.
PULLING DOWN DOES NOT COUNT AS A SUPPORTING STRAND.
![Page 31: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Inclined PlaneAn inclined plane is an even
sloping surface. A Ramp. The inclined plane makes it
easier to move a weight from a lower to higher elevation.
IMA = Run/RiseIMA = Effort Distance/
Resistance Distance
![Page 32: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Inclined PlaneThe IMA of an inclined
plane is equal to the length of the slope divided by the height of the inclined plane.
IMA(Slope) = run/riseMechanical Advantage,
is derived by increasing the effort distance through which the force must move.
![Page 33: Work and Simple Machines](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815f62550346895dce4c44/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

ScrewThe screw is also a
modified version of the inclined plane.
While this may be somewhat difficult to visualize, it may help to think of the threads of the screw as a type of circular ramp (or inclined plane).

INPUT WORK = Effort X Distance the Effort moved
IW = E x DEDE is not the same as LE. LE is measured from
fulcrum to the E. DE is measured along the direction of movement.
OUTPUT WORK = Resistance X Distance the Resistance moved
OW = R x DRDR is not the same as LR. LR is measured from
fulcrum to the R. DR is measured along the direction of movement.

Some output force is always lost due to friction.Efficiency=(Output Work/Input Work)*100
Formula for Efficiency is the same for ALL machines No machine has 100% efficiency due to friction.

1. Explain who is doing more work and why: a bricklayer carrying bricks and placing them on the wall of a building being constructed, or a project supervisor observing and recording the progress of the workers from an observation booth.
Work is defined as a force applied to an object, moving that object a distance in the direction of the applied force. The bricklayer is doing more work.
2. How much work is done in pushing an object 7.0 m across a floor with a force of 50 N and then pushing it back to its original position? How much power is used if this work is done in 20 sec?
Work = 7 m X 50 N X 2 = 700 N-m or J
3. Using a single fixed pulley, how heavy a load could you lift?Since a fixed pulley has a mechanical advantage of one, it will only change
the direction of the force applied to it. You would be able to lift a load equal to your own weight, minus the negative effects of friction.

4. Give an example of a machine in which friction is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
One answer might be the use of a car jack. Advantage of friction: It allows a car to be raised to a desired height without slipping. Disadvantage of friction: It reduces efficiency.
5. Why is it not possible to have a machine with 100% efficiency? Friction lowers the efficiency of a machine. Work output is always less than
work input, so an actual machine cannot be 100% efficient.
6. What is effort force? What is input work? Explain the relationship between effort force, effort distance, and input work.
The effort force (E) is the force applied to a machine. Input work (IW) is the work done on a machine. The input work (IW) of a machine is equal to the effort force (E) times the distance (DE) over which the effort force is exerted.
