by adding more weight to the other side
effort force
10 N
The mechanical advantage changes. The proportion of needed effort in relation to the rock's weight changes.
The length of the "effort arm" of the lever clearly has a great influence on the 'effort' the pusher must input to the lever in order to do the job. But in terms of the "work" done ... in the formal sense of Work as defined in Physics = (force) x (distance) ... the length of the effort arm should have no effect on the quantity of work.

the fulcrum, load and effort The three parts of a lever , fulcrum, resistance arm and effort arm, work together to make it possible to lift a weight using less force ...

This will occur if the fulcrum is closer to the load than the effort

It's not zero effort sockets
A lever works by reducing the amount of force needed to move an object or lift a load. A lever does this by increasing the distance through which the force acts . Lever neither increases or decreases the amount of total effort necessary . Instead , they make the work easier and simpler.
