Difference bETWEEN tender ship and stiff ship?
A vessel is stiff when its center of gravity is low, making it careen with difficulty. It returns rapidly to the upright position, with greater force. Opposite of TENDER. A vessel is tender when its center of gravity is high, making it careen easily, i.e., it is topheavy. It returns slowly to the upright position, with relatively little force. The opposite of Stiff.
How do you install a new flap on toilet?
Most of them are held in place by two pegs on either side of the overflow tube. If there are no pegs, get a flapper with the ring at the hinge point and it slides down over the tube. The old one may be fairly stiff when trying to get it off of the pegs. Twist the tab sidewise and it should come off.

What is the lever system?
Next to the wedge, the lever is the simplest tool used by mankind. In its basic form, a single lever is stiff straight rod that rests on a pivot point called a fulcrum. The length of the rod is L, its length from one end of the rod to the pivot point is l; so the length from the pivot point to the opposite end is L - l. We can show that F = f (l/(L - l)) increases the input force f to F > f when (l/(L - l)) > 1.0. The ratio (l/(L - l)) is called the mechanical advantage of the lever. EX: If L = 10 and l = 9, then 9/(10 - 9) = 9 is the mechanical advantage. So that F = 9f would be the result.
