The first simple machine here is the inclined plane. inclined planes make it easier to move up or down a slope. The load is the person and the effort is the persons legs moving up the stairs.
The second Simple machine is a wedge. A wedge helps you cut through things. The load is the block of wood. The effort is the knife going into to the wood.
The third simple machine is the screw. A screw turns into wood or other material to held things in place. the effort is the screw turning into the wood. the load is the black of wood.
