Most say it is a lever, but i know for fact that it is actually considered a wheel and axle. - I'm in proving this and actually it is a lever because i was just taking a test that asked this question and it did not give me the option of a wheel and axle but it did give me lever. Edit~ The first person to answer was, in fact, correct. To the person who last improved the answer: Some people consider it a lever; it is actually a wheel and axle. A lever is a rigid object that rotates around a fixed point, like a seesaw, while a wheel and axle is two circular or cylindrical objects that are fastened together (The handle and the metal rod) and they rotate around a common axis (the screw)! :)
A fulcrum is the fixed point which provides an axis for the lever
by definition, it has an axis point.
A wheelbarrow is an example of a second-class lever. The load is situated between the fulcrum and the force. The wheel-barrow is a 2nd class lever as the resistance is in between the force (effort) and the axis. A wheelbarrow is a class 2 lever. The fulcrum is the wheel or wheels in front of the wheelbarrow. You stand behind the wheelbarrow. The load is between you and the fulcrum.
Yes, that's a lever.
Racking leaves is a third class lever. During a third class lever force is placed between the axis and resistance.
The axis is what the Earth rotates around, like the axis on a wheel.
1st class lever, with the axis of the elbow in the center of the force generated by the triceps proximally and the resistance of the hand and forearm distally
The Earth's axis is an imaginary line passing through the north and south poles. It is like an axle is to a wheel. The Earth rotates on this axis like the wheel rotates on its axle.
A rigid bar that turns around an axis of rotation or fulcrum.
