A lever is a simple machine that uses variable distance to multiply force, or to redirect existing forces. With a lever, the force exerted by gravity on a weight can be used to lift another weight. By varying the distance between a lever's ends and its fulcrum, a heavy object can be lifted a short distance by a smaller force moving a longer distance.
