A wheel and axleWheel and Axle- moves objects across distances. 
A pulleyPulley- a cord wraps around a wheel. 
4.    For each simple machine, provide instruction for calculation of mechanical advantage.
Lever: MA = length of effort arm ÷ length of resistance arm.
Wheel and axle: A wheel Has a lever on one arm and rotate it. 
Pulley: Pulleys change the direction of a tension force on a flexible material.
5.    For each simple machine, upload a picture depicting the simple machine.
