Which of the following is not a simple machine?
- a. Pulley
- b. Lever
- c. Wedge
- d. Automobile
Find the correct option, which of the following one is not a simple machine.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
The right option is
Explanation of Solution
Machines can be utilized for energy transfer, multiply speed, and multiply force.
Pulley, lever, wedge are simple machines and an automobile is the compound machine. The combination of many small machines is known as compound machine.
Therefore, option “d” is correct.
Conclusion:
Hence, the correct option is

- Mechanics put a length of Pipe over the handle of a wrench to remove when trying to remove a very tight bolt. How does this help? (It is also hazardous since it can bleak the bolt.)arrow_forwardUsing a screwdriver, you try to remove a screw from a piece of furniture, but cant get it to turn. To increase the chances of success, you should use a screwdriver that (a) is longer, (b) is shorter, (c) has a narrower handle, or (d) has a wider handle.arrow_forwardToday, waterwheels are not often used to grind food. Instead, we have electrical devices such as blenders, choppers, and mixers. The electric motors in these devices are similar to a waterwheel, but instead of falling water causing the wheel to spin,electricity causes a shaft to spin. The specifications on a particular electric motor reports that at 1.75 103 rpm, it puts out5 hp. What is the corresponding torque in N m?arrow_forward
