Wheel and Axle




        Some simple machines make work easier like a wheel and axle.  A special kind of wheel is a gear that has bumps around its edge.  It looks like a circle, wheel, with rod called an axle through its center, both parts move together.  This machine, the wheel and axle, lifts or moves loads. Some examples of this machine are a car, wagon, door knob, pencil sharpener, bike, clock, screwdriver, faucet handles, and a bucket in a well. All kinds of people like adults and kids use wheels and axles.  Even a famous skateboarder like Tony Hawke uses wheels and axles.  If you have any question please blog us.Sincerely,Zero, the Warden, and Jeeny Been
