Name four setting and making tools and give a brief description of how one is used
1. Screwdriver: A screwdriver is a handheld tool with a narrow shaft and a flat, narrow head called a blade. It is used to turn screws and tighten or loosen them by applying torque to the screw. The blade is inserted into the slot on the screw head, and the user rotates the screwdriver either clockwise (to tighten) or counterclockwise (to loosen).
2. Wrench: A wrench is a tool used to provide a mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn objects such as nuts, bolts, or pipe fittings. It typically has a handle with a fixed or adjustable jaw at one end. The wrench is placed around the object to be turned, and the user applies force to the handle, which generates torque and rotates the object.
3. Pliers: Pliers are versatile hand tools with jaws used for gripping, bending, or cutting various objects. They typically have two handles, a fulcrum joint, and jaws at the end. Pliers can be used to hold objects firmly, pull or twist wires, bend metal pieces, or cut through materials like nails or wires with the cutting edge located near the fulcrum joint.
4. Hammer: A hammer is a striking tool consisting of a weighted head attached to a long handle. It is primarily used for driving nails, fitting parts, or breaking objects apart. The head of the hammer is made of metal and usually has a flat or slightly convex face for striking, while the handle provides leverage and control for the user.
1. Screwdriver: A screwdriver is a hand tool used for driving screws into various surfaces. It consists of a handle with a shaft and a flat head or cross-shaped tip called a screwdriver bit. To use a screwdriver, you simply place the bit into the screw head and twist it to tighten or loosen the screw.
2. Hammer: A hammer is a tool with a heavy head attached to a handle. It is primarily used for driving nails into wood or other materials, as well as for removing nails or even shaping metal. To use a hammer, you hold the handle firmly and strike the head against the object you want to drive a nail into.
3. Pliers: Pliers are a hand tool used to grip, hold, bend, or cut objects. They consist of two metal jaws connected by a pivot point, which is operated by a pair of handles. Pliers can be used for various tasks such as pulling nails, bending wires, holding objects firmly, or even cutting wires or bolts.
4. Tape measure: A tape measure is a flexible ruler used to measure distances or lengths of objects. It typically has both metric and imperial measurements marked on it. To use a tape measure, you extend the tape and hold one end in place while stretching the tape along the object you want to measure. By reading the measurements indicated on the tape, you can determine the length or distance accurately.
