No, the force is applied to the lever, but is not an example of a lever. A lever is made up of a fulcrum, a force/load, and a force arm.
-there are three types of levers
-1st Class
-The fulcrum is between the force arm and the resistance arm.
ex:Seesaws, crowbars, and oars.
-2nd Class
-The resistance is between the force arm and the fulcrum.
ex: Wheelbarrows and nutcrackers.
-3rd Class
-The force is applied between the resistance and the fulcrum.
ex: Brooms and a kicking leg.
Hope this helps.

What is an example of output force?
An output force is a force that results from an input force. For example, initially pushing something is an input force. The output force would be the force that it is moving with because of the input force.
What are the uses of the 3 parts of lever?
the 1st class lever 2nd class lever 3rd class lever the first class example is seesaw the second class lever example is wheel barrow the 3rd class lever example is fishing rod
Is tongs an example of 2nd class levers?
Tongs can indeed be considered an example of a second-class lever. In a second-class lever, the load is situated between the effort (or force applied) and the fulcrum.
Which class of lever does not multiply input force?
The first class lever (force, fulcrum, load) doesn't change the force if the lever is symetrical. Note that if it is assymetrical, the force will change.
What do you need to calculate the mechanical advantage of a lever?
A calculator and a formula for moments: Like distance from fulcrum x force = distance from fulcrum x force and I think mechanical advantage is the ratio of forces - for a lever for example where you need less force to exert a big force when for example, you wedge a crow bar in the side of the door to try and effect a break in
Canba machine make a force stronger?
Yes. For example, a lever does that.
What lever has the resistance force between effort force and the falcrum?
That would be a Second Class Lever. An example is a Wheel Barrow. The wheel axle is the fulcrum, the handles and Bin are the lever, and of course the load is in the bin.
What is class three?
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.)
What is an example of output force?
An output force is a force that results from an input force. For example, initially pushing something is an input force. The output force would be the force that it is moving with because of the input force.
What has a pivot point between a load and an input force?
The answer is: a lever.A lever is a simple machine that has a stick that pivots at a point called a Fulcrum.There are 3 types of Lever:First class lever: A first class lever is when a fulcrum is in the middle of the input force and the load. An example is a seesaw in the playground. When you press down the side of seesaw,(input force) the other side goes up. (load, output force) In the middle, there is a fixed point.Second class lever: A second class lever is where you have the load in the middle of the Fulcrum and the input force. An example would be a wheelbarrow. The basket in the middle is the load( also called the output force) the wheel at the end is the Fulcrum, and the handle that you press up and down is the input force.Third class lever: A third class lever is a lever that has a input force in between the Fulcrum and the Load. An example is a Hammer. The sharp part is the load(output force) the part you grab and swing is the input force, and the other end of the hammer is the Fulcrum.
What are the uses of the 3 parts of lever?
the 1st class lever 2nd class lever 3rd class lever the first class example is seesaw the second class lever example is wheel barrow the 3rd class lever example is fishing rod
Can you give an example of a machine that increases speed?
You need a velocity multiplier. A common example is a bicycle wheel.
If the output force is located between the fulcrum and input force what kind of lever is it?
It is a second class lever.One example is the wheelbarrow - the wheel is the fulcrum, the input force is at the handles where you lift and push, and the output force is what's carried in the wheelbarrow.
What is a good example of input force?
Someone pushing against a lever.
What is the definition of a load of a lever?
Load = the force of the weight of the lever fulcrum = the point of which the lever rests effort = the force you apply to the lever
What is the definition of a load in a lever?
Load = the force of the weight of the lever fulcrum = the point of which the lever rests effort = the force you apply to the lever
Is tongs an example of 2nd class levers?
Tongs can indeed be considered an example of a second-class lever. In a second-class lever, the load is situated between the effort (or force applied) and the fulcrum.
