What are the three kinds of levers?
The three kinds of levers are the: A) First-class lever - Like a seesaw, the fulcrum is in the middle. The input force is on one side and the output force comes out on the other side of the fulcrum. B) Second-class lever - This one is like a wheelbarrow. The fulcrum is all the way at the end, and you PULL upon the other end so the middle (where the bucket is) gets lifted up also. C) Third-class lever - The third class lever is like the second, but the input force is not at the end. The fulcrum is at one end, and on the other end is the output force. Its like the forearm of a human, our elbow is the fulcrum while you grip things with hand means you life some weight that is load and the arm is where you feel some effort being applied..
Is voltage the same as potential?
volt drop and potential difference are effectively the same thing, although the term volt drop is usually used in reference of what voltage has to occur for a diode to conduct, or what volt drop is expected across a long wire etc, potential difference is used to refer to the difference in voltage over a potential divider.
What is difference between inducer and diffuser in a pump?
Inducer in pump used to reduce the NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD Required (NPSHr). NPSHa should be more than NPSHr. NPSHr depends upon pump design and NPSHa depends upon Head in application. If NPSHr is more than NPSHa, We can reduce the same by fixing inducer in front of impeller.Diffuser used to increase the pressure. Diffuser is the static part around the impeller. It decreases the velocity of fluid which rotates by impeller and increases performance.MANIKANDANmaniukran@gmail.com

Why upper fixed point and lower fixed point are not 100 degree celsius and 0 degree celsius respectively of pure water in kathmandu?

How do you adjust the interrupter commutator switch rod on a 1970 Chevy Nova?
The upper section of the shaft has secured there to an arm, which is adapted for rotation with said shaft, the said arm having pivoted upon its outer end as indicated at one end of a lever. The opposite end of this lever has pivoted there to as shown at an interrupter arm, the said arm being pivoted intermediate its ends, and one end of which is provided with a contact point, which is adapted for engagement with the contact point, which is adjust-ably mounted upon the lever by means of a bracket and an adjusting screw.
What does the mechanical advantage of first class lever depend upon?
It depends upon where the fulcrum is, and it can be changed by moving the fulcrum.

What does the mechanical advantage of a first-class lever depend upon?
The advantage of a first class lever is that by using less input force, you get more output force. Teehee!
