Examine the seven basic simple machines: levers, wheel and axles, pulleys, gears, wedges, screws, and inclined planes. Graphic organizers demonstrate how they operate and how they are used to perform
It is said that "necessity is the mother of invention". To be sure, wheels and pulleys were invented out of necessity by the tenacious minds of upright citi- zens. Looking at the history of mankind, h
A unique interactive guide to understanding simple machines and mechanisms. Each spread introduces you to a key mechanical principle, for example levers, gears and pulleys. You then put these into pra
