Re: Action ii: Wheel and axle
Can I use two wheels and an axle? What if the ball goes up by 10 cm, and then also move horizontally?

Re: Action ii: Wheel and axle
The ball can do whatever you like horizontally, but it has to be raised in height by 10cm by a wheel and axle. If you're actually moving it at an angle up a guide, that's OK, but you can't count the same task as the inclined plane in task vi.AwersomeUser wrote: ↑September 27th, 2019, 5:48 pm Can I use two wheels and an axle?

Re: Action ii: Wheel and axle
I don't know why you would need two wheels and an axle unless you are thinking of rolling a set of wheels which might not satisfy the wheel and axle usage as a simple machine. Usually wheel and axle means you turn a wheel and the axle moves or vice versa. For example, you could wrap a string around an axle and when the string is pulled, the wheel turns and pulls another string. Mechanical advantage can be gained depending on how it is used.AwersomeUser wrote: ↑September 27th, 2019, 5:48 pm Can I use two wheels and an axle?
