The best and most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the third choice "screw"


A screw is a mechanism that converts rotational motion to linear motion, and a torque (rotational force) to a linear force. It is one of the six classical simple machines. The most common form consists of a cylindrical shaft with helical grooves or ridges called threads around the outside.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
