Jack: Yes it is, it's a lever. The wheels on the bus are simple machines, they make the bus move.
Jimmy: What about the doors?
Jack: 'Yeah' the driver pulls a lever and the doors open and you climb up the inclined plane aka the stairs. The cable in the elevator is wrapped around a groove in the wheel and axle, an electric motor pulls the cable, lifting the car between floors.
Jimmy: So the wheels on the rolling chair are too by rolling the chair back instead of lifting the chair back.
