The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) of a first-class lever is 1. This means that the input force and output force are equal in magnitude for a first-class lever. The lever is used to change the direction of the input force rather than to magnify force.

How can the IMA of a first- class lever be increased Decrease the length between the applied effort and the pivot. Increase the length between the applied effort and the pivot. Decrease the applied ef?

The IMA of a first-class lever can be increased by increasing the distance between the applied effort and the pivot point. This creates a longer lever arm, allowing for more torque to be produced with the same amount of force. Alternatively, decreasing the distance between the load and the pivot can also increase the IMA by reducing the effort required to lift the load.
