If you apply a force of 220 N to the lever how much force is applied to lift the crate?

If the perpendicular distance from the point of application of the force to the fulcrum is x metres and the perpendicular distance from the crate to the fulcrum is y metres, then the force applied on the crate is 220*x/y N.

Levers explain how the force applied by a lever is affected by its distance from the fulcrum?
On the side on which the force is being applied, the distance and force are directly proportional. On the other side of the lever, they are inversely proportional. If 1 pound of force is applied to a lever at 1 foot on the left side of the fulcrum, the lever will apply 1 pound of force 1 foot from the right side of the fulcrum. If 1 pound of force is applied 2 feet left of the fulcrum, the lever will apply 2 pounds of force 1 foot from the right side. If 1 pound is applied 4 feet left of the fulcrum, the lever will apply 4 pounds of force 1 foot to the right of the fulcrum. If 1 pound of force is applied 1 foot left of the fulcrum, at 2 feet on the right side, the force will be 1/2 pound. At four feet, it will be 1/4 pound. Etc,
How do you reduce the force of a lever?
The force a lever can apply to a given point greatly depends on two distances:The distance from the pivot point to the object to be lifted and the distance from the pivot point to the point on the lever where force will be applied.To reduce the distance from the pivot-point to the point where Force is applied is to reduce the "force" of a lever.
Does a lever pivot on a fulcrum or a torque?
Fulcrum. Torque is the force applied to move the lever
What is a lever's effort arm?
It is the part of a lever, where external force is applied in order to do work.
Part of a lever on which effort force is applied?
Third class.

What force is applied to a lever?
torque
What is the output force of a lever?
Force the lever will apply to the load being lifted.
What is the definition of a load of a lever?
Load = the force of the weight of the lever fulcrum = the point of which the lever rests effort = the force you apply to the lever
What is the definition of a load in a lever?
Load = the force of the weight of the lever fulcrum = the point of which the lever rests effort = the force you apply to the lever

What is the part of a lever on which the effort force is applied is called?
Fulcrum
Where is the input force in a lever?
generally some kinetic energy is applied, probably from you pushing on the lever
What is the name for the effect a force has when it is applied to one end of a lever and tries to turn the lever?
torque
