Abstract:

Every day， mechanical systems make our lives easier. Most of these are made up of simple machines that work together to transfer a force to a load. These simple machines include the lever and fulcrum，the wheel and axle，the pulleythe inclined planeand the piston. For thousands of years， people have combined simple machines to lighten the load of everyday life and to do things that would otherwise have been impossible.
