Wheel And Axle

Real World Example

Imagine trying to open a stubborn jar lid that just won't budge. Just like how using a rubber grip can help you twist the lid more easily, a wheel and axle system uses the larger wheel to amplify the force applied to the smaller axle, making it easier to move or lift objects. In this analogy, the jar lid is the wheel, your hand is the axle, and the rubber grip is the extra leverage that helps you apply greater force with less effort, demonstrating how the wheel and axle work together to make tasks easier.
