Yes, it is a wheel and axle.
The IMA of a wheel and axle is the radius of wheel divided by the radius of the axle.
The wheel generally turns the axle.
A pulley is a wheel but not an axle.
The mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is the ratio of the radius of the wheel to the radius of the axle.
A pulley is a type of wheel that rotates on an axle. Both pulleys and wheel-and-axle systems involve circular motion to help move and lift objects. In a wheel and axle, the wheel is a type of axle, while in a pulley system, the wheel and the axle are separate components.
A Ferris wheel is a type of simple machine known as a wheel and axle. The wheel is the circular part of the Ferris wheel that rotates, and the axle is the central rod that the wheel spins around.
Wheel and axle
When the wheel is turned, so is the axle and vice versa.
WhEeL aNd AxLe!(:
In theory a wheel and axle has only one mechanical advantage. You can find the ideal mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle by dividing the radius of the wheel by the radius of the axle.
The ideal mechanical advantage of a wheel and axle is equal to the radius of the wheel divided by the radius of the axle.
