Lever/Lever
A lever is a rod that pivots around an object. When you apply a force to the end of the lever, it will tend to rotate the fulcrum in the direction of the force applied. This rotation multiplies the applied force and allows you to lift or move something that would require a greater amount of force if you tried to apply it directly to the load.
The distance between the fulcrum to the point where you apply the force determines how far the lever is able to move. This is known as the mechanical advantage. The more the lever is extended more, the greater the mechanical advantage. You can determine the mechanical advantage by dividing the distance from the fulcrum to the point at which you are applying the force by the distance between the fulcrum and the end of the lever.
