Lever/Lever

A lever is a solid bar that pivots around a central point (known as a the fulcrum). When you apply force to the end of the lever, it is likely to cause it to turn the fulcrum to the direction of the applied force. This rotation multiplies the force applied and allows you to lift or move something that would require a greater amount of force if you were to apply it directly to the load.

The distance between the fulcrum and the place where you apply the force determines the distance the lever can be moved. This is known as the mechanical advantage. The greater the length of the lever more, the greater the advantage in terms of mechanical. You can calculate mechanical advantage by dividing distance from fulcrum point to the point you are applying force by the distance between fulcrum point and the end of the lever.
