That's actually only possible in a First Class lever. In that case, moving the
fulcrum closer to the load makes it easier to lift the load, since it now takes
less force at the effort end. But the effort force also has to move through a
greater distance than it did before, in order to lift the load to the same height.
What else can I help you with?
How would you set up a lever so that it has a mechanical advantage greater than 1?
You can set up a lever system by increasing the distance between the applied force and the fulcrum compared to the distance between the fulcrum and the load. This configuration helps to amplify the force applied. The longer the distance between the force and the fulcrum, the greater the mechanical advantage.
What would be the ideal mechanical advantage of the lever if the fulcrum 2m to the right?
The ideal mechanical advantage of a lever is calculated by dividing the distance from the input force to the fulcrum by the distance from the output force to the fulcrum. In this case, with the fulcrum 2m to the right, the mechanical advantage would be different for different positions along the lever.
How you would halve the effort required to lift a load resting one metre from the fulcrum?
You could halve the effort required by moving the load closer to the fulcrum. Placing the load 0.5 meters from the fulcrum would reduce the effort needed to lift it. This is based on the principle of a lever, where the effort needed is inversely proportional to the distance of the load from the fulcrum.
Why is there a fulcrum on a seesaw?
A seesaw is a basic lever and by definition it has a fulcrum. Without the fulcrum, there would be no point for the seesaw to operate on.
On which type of simple machine would you find a fulcrum Explain what a fulcrum is?
A fulcrum is found on a lever, which is a type of simple machine. A fulcrum is the fixed point around which the lever pivots or rotates. It helps to transfer and multiply force applied to one end of the lever to lift or move objects at the other end.
What would most likely happen if a fulcrum were moved to the left and placed between two empty book holders?
If the book holders are shorter than the fulcrum then it can still function are a fulcrum. If the book holders are taller than the fulcrum then it can't function as a fulcrum.

Jim was clearing trash from his yard so that the construction crew could begin his pool There was one large rock that needed to be moved Why would it be easier for Jim if he used a lever and fulcrum?
The lever and fulcrum decrease the amount of force needed to move the rock
Where on your arm would you find the fulcrum?
The elbow in the hand is analogous to the fulcrum in a lever
Where is the effort and fulcrum on a swing?
The fulcrum is the swing hinges and the effort is the seat, you sitting in it would be the load.
Fulcrum in a sentence?
A Fulcrum is a simple machine invented by the greek mathematician Archimedes who theorized that with a large enough fulcrum one could move the Earth. As for use in a sentance? Here ya go. Archimedes used a fulcrum to lift the earth.

The ideal mechanical advantage of a lever is calculated by dividing the distance from the input force to the fulcrum by the distance from the output force to the fulcrum.

yes it would
What is a fulcrum for a biceps curl?
The fulcrum in this case would be your elbow joints. more specifically the trochlea and capitulum on the humerus which articulate with the radius and ulna
