What machine increases distance and how is the force changed?
A number of machines are capable of doing this. One of them is the lever. Any machine that increases distance inevitably reduces force.
Does a third class lever increase the distance a load can be moved?
Levers can turn a small applied force into a large force. The same amount of work is done, though. So the small force must be applied over a larger distance, and the large force acts for a small distance. I think for the second way: you can configure a lever to operate in the same direction as the applied force, or in the opposite direction, depending on where the pivot point is. So it can change the direction of the force.
What type of lever does not increase force but does increase the speed or distance a load travels?
Class-I lever . . . may or may not do that, depending on how it's set up. Class-II lever . . . never does that. Class-III lever . . . always does that.
Why does second class levers have a mechanical advantage greater than one?
Why a third class lever cannot magnify force
What is the relationship between distance ratio and mechanical advantage?
The mechanical advantage of a lever is the ratio of the length of the lever on the applied force side of the fulcrum to the length of the lever on the resistance force side of the fulcrum. There are three types of levers - class 1, class 2, and class 3.

When is the effort force decreased in a first class lever?
The effort-to-load force in a first class lever is decreased when the distance between the effort and the fulcrum is less than the distance between the fulcrum and the load.

Is a third class lever a force mulitplier or distance mulitplier?
Levers are used to multiply the mechanical force applied to a load.
What kind of lever is a seesaw?
yes it is a 1st class lever and so is a pair of pliers!!!!
Advantage of third class lever?
'Mechanical Advantage' of a 3rd class lever is always less than 1. Force on the resistance is less than the effort force. Distance moved by the load is greater than distance moved by the effort. Eg: fishing pole.
Describe the distance from the applied force to the fulcrum?
wow i just had a unit in science about this and i cant remember
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.
How does a carjack makes work easier?
This isn't that kind of carjack that you guys think it is, it a kind of tool for a car. It makes work easier because you can use it as a lever. You can use it as any kind of lever, a first class lever, a second class lever, ora third class lever. It works better as a third class lever. It works better as a third class lever because your using less work. Less work is being done with a third class lever because of he distance. The more the distance, the less force you need. Also, the more the distance, the less heavier it is.
