Is a staircase a example of a lever?

The stairs alone are not. A lever is a simple machine that is used to lift an object up easier because instead of pulling up against gravity you are pushing down with it but still lifting the same weight. A lever needs to have a pivot point which stairs don't have. This pivot point is called the fulcrum. Stairs are actually considered an incline plane, another type of simple machine.
