Power is defined as derived from the utilization of physical or chemical resources‚ especially to provide light and heat or to work the machines. Energy has everything and anything to do with my project. It is a very important term to understand. Energy is a very important factor that determines how far the cars I made for my project will go. This illustrates how if the car doesn’t have enough kinetic energy the car won’t go very far. According to my research‚ If work‚ which transfers energy‚ is

built in Part A. Name and describe the mechanisms of each simple machine included. In Part A‚ a vehicle was created. The vehicle used gears and two wheel and axles. The gears turned as the front wheels rotated. The axles ran through the width of the vehicle‚ and the wheels connected to the axle on either side of the vehicle. Each wheel and axle was placed at different ends of the machine‚ however the vehicle has a short wheel base‚ since the vehicle is small. Each wheel had a tire for traction and

using scissors and foam core (corrugated cardboard works great‚ too). Cut a 6x3 inch piece of your chosen material using the scissors. 2.) A car is nothing without axles. Given the size of your car‚ wooden barbeque skewers will make perfect axles. Use wire cutters to snip two 4" pieces of skewer. 3.) You need to mount the axles to your chassis in a way that allows the

Ackermann geometry is to avoid the need for tyres to slip sideways when following the path around a curve.[2] The geometrical solution to this is for all wheels to have their axles arranged as radii of a circle with a common centre point. As the rear wheels are fixed‚ this centre point must be on a line extended from the rear axle. Intersecting the axes of the front wheels on this line as well requires that the inside front wheel is turned‚ when steering‚ through a greater angle than the outside wheel

simple machines are inclined plane‚ wedge‚ screw‚ lever‚ wheel and axle‚ and pulley. With the help of these machines different tribes and groups have created many common structures we know today. Simple machines have changed society in many ways and lead to the creations of famous buildings and structures. The pyramids of Egypt are an example of a culture that used simple machines to help do their work. They used the wheel and axle which provided them a way to lift and carry heavy stones. Egyptians

hanicalSimple Machines and its Mechanical Advantage What are Simple Machines? What do we mean by Mechanical Advantage? Simple Machines * creates a greater output force than the input force Therefore since work is performed by applying a force over a distance‚ with the use of these machines we can do more work with lesser effort than working with our bare hands. In short‚ they make work easier. Mechanical Advantage * The Ratio between the input force and the output force. * The measure
