In physics, moment is a combination of a physical quantity, like force, and a distance. For example, a moment of force is the product of of a force and its distance from an axis, which causes rotation about the axis.
In a lever, the product of effort and effort arm is called Moment of effort and product of load and load arm is called Moment of load. In general case, as asked in the question, "The Product of force and lever-arm distance is called Moment of Force"the Moment of Force isn't correct its {Torque}
If the input force is applied at a greater distance than the length of the effort arm is increased thereby reducing the effort.
The length of the "effort arm" of the lever clearly has a great influence on the 'effort' the pusher must input to the lever in order to do the job. But in terms of the "work" done ... in the formal sense of Work as defined in Physics = (force) x (distance) ... the length of the effort arm should have no effect on the quantity of work.
we can show moment arm as r=torque divide by force.
no because to get a torque you must multiply lever arm by force. If lever is zero, then torque is zero

From the design of the lever (on paper), the mechanical advantage is effort arm/load arm which means Distance from pivot to the applied force/distance from pivot to the load The result of that is that the forces will have the reciprocal ratio, and the input force to the lever will be the output force/the Mechanical Advantage .
distance over which the force is applied ________________________________ Distance over which the load was moved or MA= Effort Force _________ Load force OR MA= Length of Load arm ____________________X Weight/mass Length of Effort arm
The class 3 lever always has a longer resistance arm than the force arm. This is because the distance from the Fulcrum to the load/resistance is always going to be further that the fulcrum to where the effort/force is applied. If you look at a diagram of a 3rd class lever, you will be able to see why this is.
Well, i'd say its both. depends on the case to specify when it is a force multiplier or a distance multiplier.

Third class.
increase the effort arm to 8 feet
It is the part of a lever, where external force is applied in order to do work.
