Rectilinear Motion

Clipart illustrations of a simple machine, gears. Gears are used by connecting them to an axle, and using the interconnecting cogs to move other gears or parts of a system. Their mechanics are similar to the wheel and axle. | Clock, Wheels of a A clock is run by wheels. Each wheel turns another to keep the clock running..
