yes they are but i am sorry if you need an explanation i dont have one
The thread running around the screw is an inclined plane. If you were to straighten it out, it would be an inclined plane. The screw itself can be considered a combination of wedge and inclined plane.
While a wedge and an inclined plane are not the same things, a wedge is a type of inclined plane. However, not all inclined planes are considered to be wedges.
A screw is called an inclined plane because it is. The only difference between a screw and an inclined plane is the way they look and how they work. A screw is an inclined plane that moves.
Yes, a screw is a helical inclined plane.
Yes a wedge is an incline plane.
A wedge is a type of inclined plane that has two inclined surfaces meeting at a sharp edge. The screw is a type of inclined plane wrapped around a cylindrical shaft. Both the wedge and the screw utilize the principle of an inclined plane to multiply force and make it easier to perform tasks like splitting wood with a wedge or holding materials together with a screw.

inclined plane wedge and the screw
A wedge. or an inclined plane?
A wedge. or an inclined plane?
It is an inclined plane wrapped around a wedge. an inclined plane is a lever.
Inclined plane
it is a inclined plane
By rotation (or helix).
Exactly the same principle, a screw thread is an inclined plane wrapped around a circular core.
