The fulcrum is the point of the lever where a change in motion will occur. There are 3 types of levers that are illustrated at this URL (http://i1131.Photobucket.com/albums/m554/skyop22/Answers%20Pictures/levers.gif). The three types will distribute the load differently based on where the fulcrum is.

What is a support called on a lever?
inclined plane
What is the balance point called on a lever?

What is the fixed point on a lever that does not move?
The fulcrum is the fixed part of a lever. (the pivot point)
Why is the fulcrum in a lever important?
A fulcrum in a lever is very important because without a fulcrum a lever isn't a lever , and the fulcrum is the main part of a lever.
