Mechanisms: Levers, Axles, and Pulleys

The video tutorial covers three types of simple machines: levers, wheel-and-axle systems, and pulleys. It explains the different classes of levers, their mechanical advantages, and examples like seesaws and wheelbarrows. The wheel and axle section discusses how effort and resistance are applied in different scenarios, such as car wheels and sink valves. The pulley section describes fixed and movable pulleys, their mechanical advantages, and how combining pulleys can increase efficiency.
