Pulley: A pulley is a wheel with a rope around it. It helps us lift or move
                    things easily. We use pulleys in many places. For example, pull a bucket

                    from a well and raise a flag on a flagpole.

                    Inclined Plane: An inclined plane is a flat surface that is slanted. It helps
                    make it easier to move or lift heavy objects from a lower place to a higher

                    place. For example, a ramp used to push a wheelchair or a cart and a slide
                    in a playground.
