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
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.
A wheelbarrow is a example of what type of lever?
Wheelbarrows and nutcrackers are known as second-class levers. This is because their resistance is between the force arm and the fulcrum.
What is the fulcrum between effort and resistance?
a 1st class lever there are 3 types of levers, 1st 2nd and 3rd class. 1st: fulcrum between effort and resistance 2nd:resistance between fulcrum and effort 3rd: effort between fulcrum and resistance Fulcrum = a pivot point on a lever. Effort = force applied on lever Resistance = load 1st example:see-saw/scissors 2nd example:wheelbarrow/car door 3rd example:someone raking/ hockey stick being usued
What lever is a moving rock with a board and log?
Because the wood is between the rock and the log. The wood is force, the rock is resistance and the log is fulcrum so it's a third class lever

Is a baseball bat a lever?
yes, it belongs to the third class lever. it is considered a lever because the force is between the effort and the resistance. THANK YOU
A third-class lever is one in which the force is applied between the axis and the resistance?
true
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.
What lever has the resistance force between effort force and the falcrum?
That would be a Second Class Lever. An example is a Wheel Barrow. The wheel axle is the fulcrum, the handles and Bin are the lever, and of course the load is in the bin.
What lever allows you to apply the resistance force over a greater distance?
a factory lever
A wheelbarrow is a example of what type of lever?
Wheelbarrows and nutcrackers are known as second-class levers. This is because their resistance is between the force arm and the fulcrum.

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).
In what class lever is the resistance arm always longer than the force 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.
What lever is a moving rock with a board and log?
Because the wood is between the rock and the log. The wood is force, the rock is resistance and the log is fulcrum so it's a third class lever
What is the relationship between distance ratio and mechanical advantage?
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.
