Lever/Lever
A lever is a rigid bar that is pivotally positioned around a point (known as a the fulcrum). When you apply force to the end, the fulcrum will tend to rotate in the direction that the force is applied. This motion increases the force and lets you lift or move objects that normally require more force to lift.
The distance between the fulcrum of the lever and the point at which you apply force determines the maximum movement. This is known as the mechanical advantage. The more the lever extends the greater the advantage in terms of mechanical. You can determine the mechanical advantage by dividing the distance from the fulcrum until the point at which you are applying the force by the distance between the fulcrum and the end of the lever.
Levers can also have a variety of effects based on how the forces are applied. For instance the class 2 lever tends to rotate in the opposite direction when the effort force is applied (like a totter-totter). The forces generated by pushing the handle of a front door can create rotational effects similar to these.
However, levers don't create energy. They multiply the force by converting small amounts of effort applied over a long distance into greater amounts of force applied over smaller distances. This is what enables you to accomplish more in a shorter period of time, which is the reason why levers are frequently employed to lift heavy objects or moving large amounts of cargo.
