What is a seesaw?
A seesaw is an example of a first-class lever. The fulcrum, which is the part of the lever that does not move, is in the middle. The resistance, which is the weight (person) you are trying to lift is at one end. The effort, which is the force applied to the lever, is the person sitting on the other end.
Does a third class lever increase the distance a load can be moved?
Levers can turn a small applied force into a large force. The same amount of work is done, though. So the small force must be applied over a larger distance, and the large force acts for a small distance. I think for the second way: you can configure a lever to operate in the same direction as the applied force, or in the opposite direction, depending on where the pivot point is. So it can change the direction of the force.

Where is the load located in a class two lever?
Load is in the center, as in a wheel barrow or a bottle opener. Having an acronym might help remember which class is which. For example: 3-2-1 - ELF! means that for a class 3, the effort is in the middle; class 2, load in the middle; and class 1, fulcrum in the middle.

What do fulcrums help?
A fulcrum is the point of tuning for a lever. Since a fulcrum is essential for a lever, it does not help but rather is needed. The lever and fulcrum are used to move or hold objects. Levers can be used change the amount of force needed to alter a system of load, lever, and effort. The position of the fulcrum determines the force needed to change the natural equilibrium. There are three classes of levers divided in accordance to the position of the fulcrum. The first class of lever is typically used in a gravitational field with a load at one end of the lever, the fulcrum closer to the load than the middle of the lever, and a force applied near the other end of the lever. The important point is that the fulcrum is between the two forces and on the opposite side. If the lever is longer on the force side, the force needed to move the load is less than the weight of the load, but the load travels a smaller distance than the applied force point moves. This would be used possibly to lift an heavy object. By placing the fulcrum close to the point of force, the load moves farther than the applying force. This can be demonstrated by observing a trebuchet (commonly referred to as a catapult) The second class of lever places the load and the force on the same side of the fulcrum with the load closer to the fulcrum than the applied force. An example of this is the wheelbarrow. Again, the force needed to lift the load is less than the weight of the load. The third class of lever places the force between the fulcrum and the load. Examples of uses for this are chopsticks or ice tongs.

How does lever help make work easier?
a lever makes work easier in the sense that it help carry a heavy load from the ground in a process called lifting!
