Vocabulary: transmission, transformation, chain and sprocket, gear trains, rod & crank, etc.
When we apply forces to things - be they objects or simple machines, we often see motion.
That resulting motion can be the same as the motion you applied or different from what you applied.
If the "input motion" is the SAME as the "output motion", it is called "Motion Transmission".
If the input and output motions are DIFFERENT, it is called "Motion Transformation".
There are systems that either keep the same motion OR change it.
You will have to recognize what is happening, but not necessarily name the system.
This video may not use the EXACT systems we talked about in the powerpoint, but it DOES show how types of motion change and is simply pretty cool!
