In this picture there are the simple machines are the inclined plane, wedge, and the screw. A inclined plane can help lift an objectfrom one end to the top of a stairs a wedge can cut an object and a screw can be used to keep thngs togather. A inclined plane makes work easier by breaking it down into smaller parts. A wedge are 2 inclined planes put back to back to cut things. A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylindr. In a inclined plane the load is the person and the effort are the legs taking the person up the stairs. In an wedge the load is the carrot and the effort is when the knife cuts into the carrot. In a screw the load is the wood your putting the screw in and the effort is when you start screwing the screw in the wood .
