What class of lever is a hole punch?
If you have the fulcrum ( unmoveable pivot point) between your hand and the object you are prying, it is a 1st class. If the end of the pry bar is wedged into a fulcrum and you are trying to move something between the end of the bar and your hand, it is a 2nd class. My class used a pry bar as " a classic example of a 1st class lever"....sometimes true, but very common to use it as a 2nd class as well ( e.g. moving an alternator, etc...)

Is the lever increase the force to move an object but it does not change the direction of the force?
There are 3 basic types of levers. 1st class, 2nd class and 3rd class. some change the direction of the force, some do not. some increase the force, some do not. A broom is an example of increasing speed, but not force. The direction of the effort (force you put in) and the resistance (force applied to the floor) is the same.
