What kind of lever is a seesaw?

yes it is a 1st class lever and so is a pair of pliers!!!!


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.


What is the difference between first class second class and third class levers?

the difference is the position of the fulcrum. a first class lever has the fulcrum between the lode and applied force. a second class lever has the load between the fulcrum and applied force. A third class lever has the applied force between load and fulcrum. The load happens to be the thing that you are affecting in the system. On a seesaw the load and applied force changes as either kid goes up, but the lower kid is always the force and upper is the load with the fulcrum in the middle. this happens to be a first class lever. a second class lever could be a bottle cap opener with the fulcrum at the end the bottle cap(load) in the middle and you pushing (force) on the other. a third class lever are like tweezers with the fulcrum on the closed end, force is you pushing in the middle, and affected load is whatever you pick up. There are also compound levers like nailclippers, but by diagramming the whole system it should be pretty easy to discover that it is a first class lever. It's compund because of the use of a lever system


Identify the class of lever for which the fulcrum is between the input force and the output force?

2nd class


Is a leaf rake a lever?

Racking leaves is a third class lever. During a third class lever force is placed between the axis and resistance.

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.

If the input force is between the fulcrum and the output force what kind of lever is it?

first class lever


What does class 1 lever mean?

A Class-1 lever is a lever with the force and the load (resistance) on opposite sides of the fulcrum (pivot).

2nd class


How do you find the output force of a 1st class lever?

Multiply (the input force) x (the lever's mechanical advantage).


Is a leaf rake a lever?

Racking leaves is a third class lever. During a third class lever force is placed between the axis and resistance.


Is a force an example of a lever?

No, the force is applied to the lever, but is not an example of a lever. A lever is made up of a fulcrum, a force/load, and a force arm.-there are three types of levers-1st Class-The fulcrum is between the force arm and the resistance arm.ex:Seesaws, crowbars, and oars.-2nd Class-The resistance is between the force arm and the fulcrum.ex: Wheelbarrows and nutcrackers.-3rd Class-The force is applied between the resistance and the fulcrum.ex: Brooms and a kicking leg.Hope this helps.a08Deevic88www.ETangerineE.webs.com


What type of lever is seesaw?

first class lever. Why? because it is in the order of output force-fulcrum-input force. output force ______________________________ input force fulcrum
