third-class lever
, with the fulcrum on one end of the rod, the input force close to the fulcrum, and the output force at the other end of the rod.
Is a fishing rod a simple or compound machine?
Lesson Summary
A compound machine consists of two or more simple machines. Examples of
compound machines
include bicycles, cars, scissors, and fishing rods with reels. Compound machines generally have lower efficiency but greater mechanical advantage than simple machines.
Which types of simple machines exist in the fishing pole?

third class lever
. In this class of levers, the force arm lies between the fulcrum and the load arm. Because of this arrangement, a relatively large force is required to move the load.
What kind of simple machine is a fishing reel?
A modern fishing pole with a Fishing reel is what would have been called a “
compound machine
” as it has wheel + axle + pulley (in the reel itself and in the fishing line) + levers in some situations. Lever: has weight, fulcrum, applied force.
What type of lever is a fishing pole?
A fishing rod is an example of
class III lever
.
What is a complex machine example?
Complex machines are also called compound machines. Two or more simple machines work together to form a complex machine. Compound machines can do more difficult jobs than simple machines alone. Examples of complex machines are
bicycle, wheel barrow, crane, car jack, lawn mover
etc.
Are gears compound machines?
compound machine. Gears are based on the wheel and axle. Gears have teeth on the edge of the wheel that allow one gear to turn another.
A set of gears forms a compound machine in which one wheel and axle is linked to another
.
What simple machines are used to make up this compound machine?
It is used to carry heavy objects. It consists of two simple machines:
a lever and a wheel and axle
.

a complex machine
made up of many simple machines such as wheel and axle, wedge, lever and fulcrum, and screw.
Is a fishing pole a pulley?
Fishing Rod with Reel
The reel is a wheel and axle that works as a pulley
. The fishing line is wrapped around the wheel. Using the handle to turn the axle of the wheel winds or unwinds the line.
What are some examples of a pulley?
- Elevators use multiple pulleys in order to function.
- A cargo lift system that allows for items to be hoisted to higher floors is a pulley system.
- Wells use the pulley system to hoist the bucket out of the well.

a door knob, a screwdriver, an egg beater, a water wheel, the steering wheel of an automobile, and the crank used to raise a bucket of water from a well
. When the wheel in a wheel and axle machine is turned, so is the axle, and vice versa.
What class lever is represented by a fishing pole Why?
With
third class levers
the effort is between the load and the fulcrum, for example in barbecue tongs. Other examples of third class levers are a broom, a fishing rod and a woomera.
Which is not a type of simple machine?
Option a)
Spring
is not a type of simple machine.
Is a fishing pole a second class lever?
A fishing rod is a
third class lever
if it is fixed at the base and the hand holding the rod is between that fulcrum and the other end of the rod.
What is a class 3 lever examples?
In a Class Three Lever, the Force is between the Load and the Fulcrum. If the Force is closer to the Load, it would be easier to lift and a mechanical advantage. Examples are
shovels, fishing rods, human arms and legs, tweezers, and ice tongs
. A fishing rod is an example of a Class Three Lever.
What is a class 2 lever examples?
In a Class Two Lever, the Load is between the Force and the Fulcrum. The closer the Load is to the Fulcrum, the easier the load is to lift. Examples include
wheelbarrows, staplers, bottle openers, nut cracker, and nail clippers
. A great example of a Class Two Lever is a wheelbarrow.
What type of machine is a seesaw compound machine complex machine simple machine mechanical machine?
