An example of a lever is a crow bar. The fulcrum would be where the bar touches the ground, that is what the bar is rotating around.

What lever has resistance between the axis fulcrum and the force effort?

A second-class lever has resistance between the fulcrum and the effort force. In this type of lever, the load is situated between the fulcrum and the effort, which allows for increased force output at the expense of distance traveled. Examples include nutcrackers and wheelbarrows.


Why can a clothespin be a class 1 lever and a class 3 lever?

because In a Type 1 Lever, the pivot (fulcrum) is between the effort and the load. In an off-center type one lever (like a pliers), the load is larger than the effort, but is moved through a smaller distance. Examples of common tools (and other items) that use a type 1 lever include and in a Type 3 Lever, the effort is between the pivot (fulcrum) and the load.
