Inclined plane



                     An inclined plane is a slanted flat surface with
                     both ends placed at different heights. How
                     does an inclined plane function?



                     An inclined plane makes it
                     easier for us to move and
                     also to move a load to a
                     higher level.

                                                                    inclined planes in your
                      An inclined plane makes movement              daily life and provide a
                           easier for disabled people.              different example.

                        Screw

                     A screw is a type of simple machine with a spiral
                     inclined plane called thread. Screws are used to attach                       thread
                     and tighten two pieces of objects that are joined together.
