I WONDER - How Does A Screw And Wedge Work?

The video tutorial explains the mechanics and applications of screws and wedges. A screw is described as an inclined plane wrapped around a core, converting rotational force into linear force, useful for fastening and lifting. A wedge is a double inclined plane used for separating or holding materials, with sharper wedges requiring less force.
