There may be a screw holding the handle to the rake. However, it would be a stretch of the imagination to consider a rake as a screw.

Perhaps the only similarity is that the rake may have a wedge-shaped fan at the bottom. And, screws function like wedges. But, here the analogy would stop short.

Where is the fulcrum and where are the input and output forces applied on a leaf rake?

In a leaf rake, the fulcrum is typically located near the handle, where it pivots when in use. The input force is applied at the handle by the user, who exerts effort to lift or push the rake. The output force is applied at the rake's tines, which interact with the leaves or debris on the ground. This setup allows the user to leverage their effort to effectively gather leaves.

Is a leaf rake a lever?

Yes, a leaf rake can be considered a type of lever. When you push down on the handle of the rake, it applies force on the leaves on the ground, allowing you to gather them up easily. The pivot point where the handle meets the rake head acts as the fulcrum in this lever system.
