A wheelbarrow is an example of a second-class lever, in which the load is situated between the pivot point (fulcrum) and the effort. Pushing down on the handles to lift the load is an example of how second-class levers work.
A wheelbarrow is a type of lever, specifically a class 2 lever, where the "fulcrum" is at one end, the effort (you pushing down on the handles) is at the other end, and the load (the weight you're carrying) is in the middle. It does not incorporate a wedge or a pulley in its basic design.
A wheel and axle is considered a type of compound lever, where the wheel acts as the axle's fulcrum. When a force is applied to the wheel, it creates a mechanical advantage by allowing the axle to rotate, thereby multiplying the force applied.
A wheelbarrow is a type 2 lever, where the load is situated between the fulcrum (the wheel) and the force (person pushing or lifting). This type of lever provides a mechanical advantage by allowing the user to lift heavy loads with less force.
No, a screwdriver is a simple machine classified as a type of lever, specifically a wheel and axle is another type of simple machine, where a wheel (circular object) turns around a central rod.

first class lever
No. Depending on how you use the wheel and axle changes what type of lever it is. If the wheel is turning the axle it is a second class lever. If the axle is changing the wheel, it is a third class lever.
