Moving the fulcrum in a lever changes the mechanical advantage of the system. When the fulcrum is moved closer to the load, it requires less effort to lift the load but the distance the load moves is reduced. Conversely, when the fulcrum is moved closer to the effort, it requires more effort to lift the load but the load moves a greater distance.
As you move the effort force closer to the fulcrum, the mechanical advantage decreases. This is because the input force is applied over a shorter lever arm, which reduces the moment arms on both sides of the fulcrum, resulting in a smaller mechanical advantage.
The fulcrum is the fixed part of a lever. (the pivot point)
do you exert more force when you are further from the fulcrum
move the plank closer to the fulcrum to be able to lift the rock off the ground

A. move the fulcrum rock closer to the boulder.
how does moving a fulcrum on a lever change the amount of force needed to move an object
The fulcrum should be placed closer to the resistance to make it easier to move when using a first-class lever. By positioning the fulcrum closer to the resistance, you can gain a mechanical advantage, requiring less effort to move the resistance.
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.
Lever and fulcrum. ie. give me a fulcrum and a big enough lever an i can move the world
Move the fulcrum closer to the load.
A fixed point at which a lever pivots is called a fulcrum. The location of the fulcrum determines how the lever will move and can affect the amount of mechanical advantage gained when using the lever.
The fulcrum should be placed closer to the rock to create a greater force leverage advantage. Placing the fulcrum closer to the rock will require less effort to lift the rock, as the force needed will be exerted farther from the fulcrum.
