A simple machine is a device that takes a single applied force to change the magnitude or direction of a single load force. Simple machines are the building blocks of all more complicated machines. There are six simple machines: lever, wheel and axle, pulley, screw,wedge, and inclined plane. See the related link for descriptions and examples of each of these machines. A crowbar is an example of a lever.
Seesaw - The seesaw works by putting the fulcrum in the middle, and the two people on each end work as the force and the effort. This would be called a first class lever. Wheelbarrow: When the handles are lifted, the wheelbarrow is the fulcrum. This would be second class lever. Crow Bar:The crow bar is a first class lever, It's helps moves things around, like if you had a big rock to move out the way, you can use a crow bar, and you will need a smaller rock to be the fulcrum. Sport: Most sports use equipments like tennis racquets, softball bats, and cricket bats to make objects move faster and to hit objects like a ball further away. This is a third class lever
Four examples of levers are scissors, a wheelbarrow, Baseball bats, and a broom. Other examples of levers are an axe, see saw, shovel or pry bar, hoe, fishing rod, arm, door, stapler, can opener, and pliers.
it is a first class lever
It is like scissors, a first class lever.
A crane is a first class lever when it is winching in or out the rope attached to a load. The crane becomes 3rd class lever when it's boom is luffing, i.e. it is being lowererd or raised.
The lever class of a hammer depends upon its use. If the hammer is used as a claw to remove a nail, it is a first class lever. When the hammer is used to strike a nail, it is a third class lever. There are three classes of levers. The difference between the classes lies in the position of the load, the effort and the fulcrum. When the fulcrum is between the load and effort, the object is a first class lever. If the load is between the fulcrum and effort, the object is a second class lever. A third class lever places the effort between the load and the fulcrum.
It depends on which side of the hammer you're using. If you're using the claw part its a class-1 lever, but if you're using the hammer itself, it's a class-3 lever.
