CHAPTER 8
Evaluation Engineering

1. Name the simple machine described using the options from the following list. /12

Inclined plane Lever Pulley


Screw Wedge Wheel and axle

a) This simple machine uses the difference between the diameters of its
rotational parts to reduce the force needed to transport an object.

b) This simple machine’s effectiveness depends on the distance between


the effort (input) and the fulcrum as well as the distance between the
fulcrum and the resistance (output).

c) This simple machine can be used alone or with other simple machines
of the same type. It can change the amount of effort needed to lift a load
or modify the direction of a motion.

d) This simple machine changes rotational motion and force to linear motion
and force.

2. Complete the text using the options from the following list. /12

Axis Axle Simple machine

When used as a __________________________, a wheel is always attached to


an __________________________, which is a type of rod that passes through
the __________________________ of the wheel. When a wheel rotates,
it indirectly rotates its __________________________ as well. The larger the
wheel is relative to the __________________________, the greater the force
on the __________________________ is relative to the force on the wheel.
