It is a second class lever.
One example is the wheelbarrow - the wheel is the fulcrum, the input force is at the handles where you lift and push, and the output force is what's carried in the wheelbarrow.
a first class lever
No, the function of the fulcrum remains the same The only change would be the ratio of force to load The closer the fulcrum is the the load, the less force required to lift it The farther away the fulcrum is from the load, the more force required to lift it
Yes.
Class 2.
yes it changes the direction, and increases the force
Levers are classified into three types (first-class, second-class, and third-class) depending on the relative position of the fulcrum (pivot point), the point of applied (input) force, and the location of the load (output force). In a first-class lever, the fulcrum is between the input force and the output force, and the load is moved in the opposite direction of the applied force. Placing the fulcrum closer to the load gives an advantage of force (less force needed to move the load a shorter distance), while a fulcrum closer to the point of applied force gives an advantage of distance (the load is moved a greater distance but more applied force is needed). First-class levers include a crowbar, using a hammer's claw end to remove a nail, and a pair of scissors. In a second-class lever, the load is between the fulcrum and the point of applied force, so both forces move in the same direction. Less force is needed to move the load, but the load does not move as far as the direction over which the input force must be applied. Examples include the wheelbarrow, a bottle opener, and a door on its hinges. In a third-class lever, the input force is applied between the fulcrum and the load, and both move in the same direction. The amount of applied force is always greater than the output force of the load, but the load is moved a greater distance than that over which the input force is applied. Examples include a hammer driving a nail and the forearm of a person swinging a baseball bat.

hhhhh
first class lever
2nd class
first class lever. Why? because it is in the order of output force-fulcrum-input force. output force ______________________________ input force fulcrum
fulcrum
First Class Levers The fulcrum is between the input force and the load Always changes the direction of the input force and can be used to increase the force or the distance Second-class levers The load is between the fulcrum and the input force Does not change direction of the input force Output force is greater than the input force. Third-Class lever The input force is between the fulcrum and the load Does not change the direction of the input force Output force is less than input force.
yes, the fulcrum is in between the input and output force.
The input force or the effort on a pair of scissors would be the force applied by your hands on the handles. The output force or load would be the blades of the pair of scissors.
No, the function of the fulcrum remains the same The only change would be the ratio of force to load The closer the fulcrum is the the load, the less force required to lift it The farther away the fulcrum is from the load, the more force required to lift it
a lever
The answer is: a lever.A lever is a simple machine that has a stick that pivots at a point called a Fulcrum.There are 3 types of Lever:First class lever: A first class lever is when a fulcrum is in the middle of the input force and the load. An example is a seesaw in the playground. When you press down the side of seesaw,(input force) the other side goes up. (load, output force) In the middle, there is a fixed point.Second class lever: A second class lever is where you have the load in the middle of the Fulcrum and the input force. An example would be a wheelbarrow. The basket in the middle is the load( also called the output force) the wheel at the end is the Fulcrum, and the handle that you press up and down is the input force.Third class lever: A third class lever is a lever that has a input force in between the Fulcrum and the Load. An example is a Hammer. The sharp part is the load(output force) the part you grab and swing is the input force, and the other end of the hammer is the Fulcrum.
That's a Class-1 lever, where the input and output are on opposite sides of the fulcrum.
