Is an wheelbarrow an inclined plane a wedge a lever or a wheel and axle?
A wheel barrow has tow levers (the handles), a wheel and axle (wheel), and some people could say it is an inclined plane BUT only when it is rolling and it is tilted ti be an incline plane. When it is not moving it is a flat plane not an inclined plane. :)

No. An inclined plane is simply a two-dimensional surface with a slope to it in the third dimension. A lever is a three-dimensional object which also requires a fulcrum (or leverage point) to act as a force transmitter, amplifier or attenuator.
