They are examples of simple machines — specifically levers.

- A wheelbarrow is a second‑class lever (fulcrum = wheel axle, load = the bucket, effort = the handles) and also uses the wheel‑and‑axle.
- A nutcracker is a type of lever too (often a compound lever) that amplifies the squeezing force to crack the nut.
