A handcart is a first class lever. It is because the fulcrum which is the bolts that attach the handles and the base, is at the middle of the handcart while the effort are at the handles while the load is at the base.

Are levers 1st class or 2nd or 3rd?

Levers can be all of them. A first class lever is when the pivot (funcrum) is in the middle. A second class lever has the load (resistance) in the middle, and the third class lever has the effort (force) in the middle. For example, a see-saw is a first class lever because the fulcrum is the in middle. A exmaple for a second class lever would be a can opener because the load, the can, is in the middle. And last, the thrid class lever is a arm because the effort is in the middle, because your elbow gives the effort to move the arm.

What are fulcrums?

A fulcrum is the turning point of a lever i.e. The hinge on a door. It is essential to know when learning about the law of the lever i.e. The distance from the fulcrum X force applied on the right hand side = The distance from the fulcrum X force applied on the left hand side. IF the lever is balanced. This can also be written as anticlockwise moments = clockwise moments.

What are the three classes of levers?

A class three lever is where the load is one side of the force and the fulcrum is on the other side of the force. An example is a pair of tweezers. Another example is the secondary lever in a pair of fingernail clips, i.e. the part that closes on the fingernail. (The first lever in a pair of fingernail clips, i.e. the part that you press on, is an example of a second class lever.)
