Adduction in anatomy is bringing the limb closer to the midline. For instance, when you do a jumping jack, you are ABducting when you bring your arms overhead, in a Y shape, and ADducting when you bring your arms back to your sides.
A binder clip is a class 2 lever. This is because the fulcrum is at one end, the load (paper) is in the middle, and the effort (pushing down the arms) is at the other end.
A first-class lever always increases mechanical advantage, as the effort arm is longer than the load arm. The mechanical advantage is determined by the ratio of the lengths of the two arms of the lever.
Tongs are considered a type of lever, specifically a class 1 lever. They consist of two arms that pivot at a point, allowing users to grasp and manipulate objects with less force.
The equal arm balance is used on a lever, in particular, the class 1 lever. It consists of a beam that pivots around a central point with two identical arms on either side for balancing weights on a fulcrum.
Hinge is a joint. It is designed to join two 'arms' together while letting them move freely. A lever is when a pivot, load, effort is present. Although hinge itself is not a lever, but taking our biceps as an example, that would be a Class 3 lever

You are thinking of the baseball bat. The ball itself is not a lever. The bat is a lever, in the sense that it magnifies the motion of your arms.
Bones used in jumping jacks will be the bones of the arms and legs. The extremities will move when jumping jacks are done.
A seesaw is a simple machine that has a continuous lever with equal arms. When one end of the seesaw is pushed down, the other end goes up, demonstrating the principle of a lever with balanced arms.

A garlic press is considered a double class 2 lever because it has two distinct lever arms that work together to amplify force. The handles serve as the first lever arm, where the user applies force, while the garlic clove and the pressing mechanism act as the second lever arm, which translates that force to crush the garlic. This design allows for efficient use of leverage, making it easier to apply enough pressure to crush the garlic with minimal effort.
