A compound machine combines two or more simple machines to perform work more efficiently than a single simple machine. By leveraging the advantages of different simple machines working together, a compound machine can multiply the input force or distance, making it easier to accomplish tasks that would be challenging using just one simple machine.
Compound, many different things combine to create a catapult. lever arm, torque battery (twisted rope) winding mechanism firing control (ratchet system with trigger)
A staircase is considered a compound machine because it consists of multiple simple machines (such as inclined planes) working together to make it easier to move between different levels.
When two or more simple machines work together, they are called a compound machine. Compound machines are systems that combine multiple simple machines to perform more complex tasks or amplify force.
Compound pendulum is a physical pendulum whereas a simple pendulum is ideal pendulum. The difference is that in simple pendulum centre of mass and centre of oscillation are at the same distance.
