It is used to lift a heavy object. Place the end of the lever under the rock. Then move a fulcrum (for example a small rock) under the lever close to where it goes under the rock. By moving your end of the lever a lot, you can make the shorter end move a little and lift a heavy weight.

without a lever you could swim, read a book, play games, hop, watch TV.
a pulley because it could carry heavy stuff
Probably you are using the board as a lever.
a lever has a mechanical advantage of 5 . how heavy an object can the lever move if a person exerts 100N force on the lever?
A lever
A jib crane uses a system of pulleys to lift objects as opposed to a lever, like most standard cranes.
The lever.

A lever! The most simple would probably be a form of lever, and this may also depend on the actual size of the "heavy rock".
A fulcrum in a lever is very important because without a fulcrum a lever isn't a lever , and the fulcrum is the main part of a lever.
lifting heavy objects
A fulcrum would be placed as close to the heavy load as possible. This minimizes the lever arm (and thus minimizes the torque) for the load while maximizing the lever arm (and thus maximizing the torque) for the force you must apply.

A heavy box can be lifted by the simple machine of a lever. Using a plank as the and rod (or similar) as the fulcrum, the box can be lifted, tilted and possibly flipped by applying force to one side of it.
