A second class lever always has a mechanical advantage greater than 1.
The mechanical advantage of a First Class lever is Distance of the effort from the fulcrum/Distance of the load from the fulcrum
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.
because they are smaller than the level 3 that's why
fd=MA

A pencil isn't a lever at all, unless you are using it to turn force into useful motion. If you use the pencil to write with, it's closer to being a needle reading a record, as it is dragged across a surface, leaving graphite which has broken off of the main core on the paper. For a first class lever, think of a see-saw. For a second class lever, think of a wheelbarrow. For a third class, think of a pair of nail clippers, or of your forearm.
Second class lever. . . . Always greater than 1 . Third class lever . . . . . Always less than 1 . First class lever . . . . . Can be greater than 1 or less than 1 depending on position of fulcrum.

Multiply (the input force) x (the lever's mechanical advantage).
... is always less than 1 .
always less than 1
idk go ask your teacher
