  1. Forces What is a Force? Push or Pull What does it do? Causes Motion How do we describe it? Size (magnitude) Direction

  2. What are the 7 simple machines? • Lever • Inclined Plane Wedge Screw • Wheel and Axle Gear Pulley

  3. Why do we use simple machines? • To make life easier! • Simple Machines change forces: change the direction change the size change both

  4. How do they work? • Conservation of Energy Work and Energy are related • Scientific Definition of Work Work = Force x Distance distance in direction of force
