When was the wedge invented?
The inventor of the wedge is unknown
Why is the wedge V shaped?
The wedge is V shaped to make the shape of a wedge. The definition of a wedge is a gap between two spaces, thereby causing the V in wedge design. The v shape of the wedge was also used as a military strategy to break through enemy lines.
What kind of a simple machine is a nail?
A wedge
Are pliers a wedge and a lever?
Yes, Pliers & Wedge are levers.
How is a saw a wedge?
A saw is not a wedge, it's a cutting tool.
Is the hammer is a example of wedge?
No , hammer is not example of wedge , an axe is example of wedge .
What is the formula for the MA of a wedge?
MA= resistance force / effort force = Fr/Fe
How do you calculate wedge force?
To calculate wedge force, you can use the formula: F = T * tan(α), where F is the force applied to the wedge, T is the force perpendicular to the wedge (normal force), and α is the angle of the wedge. This formula assumes the wedge is ideal and there is no friction. Adjustments may need to be made for real-world applications where friction plays a role.
What is a compound machine made of a lever and wedge?
A compound machine consisting of a lever and wedge would typically involve using the lever to apply force on the wedge. For example, using a lever to push down on a wedge to split wood. The lever amplifies the force applied to the wedge, making it easier to perform tasks that would be difficult with just the wedge alone.
Air brake what is a wedge brake?
Air wedge brakes apply air in a chamber pushing a wedge between two rollers, connected to one end of a brake shoe, causing them to split apart, in turn causing the two shoes to be forced into the brake drum.
Find or reach a chisel. Describe why it is a wedge and how it works. 3-5 sentences total?
A chisel is a type of machine called a wedge. A wedge is a simple machine that consists of two inclined planes, giving it a thin end and a thick end. Force is applied to the thick end of the wedge, and the sloping sides of the wedge apply force to the object, cutting/splitting it apart. A wedge makes work easier by increasing the force applied to the object, although it applies the force over a shorter distance. Another example of a wedge is a hammer.
What is the structure of the wedge?
A wedge is a simple machine with a triangular shape. It has a sharp edge that tapers to a point. The wide end of the wedge is used to apply force, while the sharp end is used to separate or lift objects.
What is a u wedge?
Utility wedge. Similar to a gap wedge or approach wedge.
Are Teeth and boat are examples of which simple machine?
It is a wedge.
How do you find the efficiency of a wedge?
The efficiency of a wedge is calculated by dividing the load distance by the effort distance, then multiplying the result by 100 to get a percentage. The formula is: Efficiency = (load distance / effort distance) x 100. This gives you the ratio of the load distance to the effort distance, indicating how efficiently the wedge can lift or separate objects.
What is the solution of tension of the string?
apply the formula of tension
How does a wedge change input force?
A wedge allows you to apply a smaller input force over a longer distance to produce a larger output force over a shorter distance. This mechanical advantage is achieved by the inclined plane of the wedge, which helps in splitting or lifting heavy objects more easily.
