Hey all:
I need some help in settling a difference of opinion among my staff. We
are writing up the science of a zipline for a new exhibit and there is
some disagreement on whether or not the 2 simple machines involved are
an inclined plane (they slope of the wire) and a pulley OR an inclined
plane and a wheel and axle.
I know this group will have plenty of insight so bring it on!
