THIRD Class
A leg bending at the knee is an example of a third-class lever, where the effort (muscle force) is applied between the fulcrum (knee joint) and the resistance (weight of the leg). This arrangement allows for greater speed and range of motion, but requires more force to lift the leg.
Knee flexion is an example of a third-class lever, where the effort (force) is applied between the fulcrum (joint) and the resistance (weight of the lower leg). The quadriceps muscle exerts the effort to flex the knee joint, overcoming the resistance provided by the weight of the lower leg.
The leg press machine operates on a second-class lever system, where the resistance (weight plates) is located between the effort (user's legs) and the fulcrum (pivot point of the machine). This lever configuration allows for greater force production with less effort compared to other lever classes.
A wheelbarrow is a second-class lever. In a second-class lever, the load is between the effort (force) and the fulcrum, which allows for a mechanical advantage in lifting and moving heavy loads with less effort.
A leg extension machine typically functions as a third-class lever, where the effort force is between the fulcrum (axis of rotation) and the resistance force (weight being lifted). By extending the legs against the resistance, the quadriceps muscles are strengthened.
third class lever. Load/Resistance is the ball fulcrum = hip & knee

The Class Lever for Pliers is a class 2 lever.
Class 3 Lever! You Don't even know that!
no. a catapult is a class-3-lever not a class-1-lever.
class 3
It is a third class lever.
