Simple machine. The six classical simple machines. A simple machine is a mechanical device that changes the direction or magnitude of a force. [1] In general, they can be defined as the simplest mechanisms that use mechanical advantage (also called leverage) to multiply force. [2] Usually the term refers to the six classical simple machines ...
Applied mechanics – describes the behavior of a body, in either a beginning state of rest or of motion, subjected to the action of forces. [21] Applied mechanics, bridges the gap between physical theory and its application to technology. It is used in many fields of engineering, especially mechanical engineering and civil engineering.
Mechanics (from Ancient Greek: μηχανική, mēkhanikḗ, lit. "of machines ") [1] [2] is the area of physics concerned with the relationships between force, matter, and motion among physical objects. [3] Forces applied to objects result in displacements, which are changes of an object's position relative to its environment.
A hand tool is any tool that is powered by hand rather than a motor. [1] Categories of hand tools include wrenches, pliers, cutters, files, striking tools, struck or hammered tools, screwdrivers, vises, clamps, snips, hacksaws, drills, and knives . Outdoor tools such as garden forks, pruning shears, and rakes are additional forms of hand tools.
