Building Simple Machines
for Jr. FLL

October 15, 2010

The Jr. FLL team is checking out simple machines before working on their X-ray machine.

Wheels can be on connected or separate axles.

See how far this can reach.

Changing the pivot places makes different motions.

Levers can be used to pick up things.

Pulleys can make motion at a distance, change speed, and direction.
