SCISSORS ARE WEDGES WITH A FULCROM so that mkes thm both
you put different colored pencil fillings in the pencil
a pencil made out of charcoal
one lever in a bathroom is a toilet lever hope that helps:)
The word pencil comes from the Latin word pencillus which means "little tail." Before the pencil, was a quill pen, which is a tail of a quill.
That would depend if the pencil were an H or a B. Artist pencils are identified with a number and a letter. H is for hard. A 6H pencil would be harder than a 4H pencil. B is for soft. A 6B pencil would be softer than a 4B pencil.
A pencil can be considered a Class 3 lever, with the hand providing the effort, the pencil acting as the load, and the fulcrum being where the hand grips the pencil.
A mechanical pencil is a Class 1 lever. The writing tip serves as the fulcrum, the effort is applying force on the pencil, and the load is the lead that is pushed out.
lever
No, it's a compound machine.
A pencil isn't a lever at all, unless you are using it to turn force into useful motion. If you use the pencil to write with, it's closer to being a needle reading a record, as it is dragged across a surface, leaving graphite which has broken off of the main core on the paper. For a first class lever, think of a see-saw. For a second class lever, think of a wheelbarrow. For a third class, think of a pair of nail clippers, or of your forearm.
ummm absolutely none its just wood with graphite inside i think you haave got a bit confused....
A pencil sharpening blade is not an example of a lever. Levers typically consist of a rigid bar or rod capable of rotating around a fixed point called a fulcrum to lift or move objects. The pencil sharpening blade does not function in this way.

Whether something is a lever depends on how you use it. The most obvious thing to use as a lever would be a ruler, but conceivably you could use a pencil in that way, and scissors are necessarily levers.
A pencil can be considered a compound machine, as it is made up of multiple simple machines working together. These simple machines include a wedge (the pencil tip for writing), a lever (the pencil body for holding and applying force), and possibly a wheel and axle (if the pencil has an eraser at one end). The combination of these simple machines allows the pencil to perform its function efficiently.
A pencil sharpener is a compound machine made up of simple machines, like the screw and lever.
A pencil sharpener is an example of a simple machine known as a wedge. The blade inside the sharpener is shaped like a wedge, which helps to cut and shape the pencil tip when it is inserted and rotated.
