Lever/Lever

A lever is a rigid bar pivoted around a point (known as a Fulcrum). When you apply force to the end of the bar, the fulcrum will turn in the direction the force is applied. This rotation multiplies the force applied which allows you to lift or move something that would require a greater amount of force if you attempted 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 is able to move. This is referred to as the mechanical advantage. The advantage of mechanical force increases as the lever gets extended. You can calculate mechanical advantage by dividing the distance from fulcrum point to the point you apply force by the distance between the fulcrum point and end of lever.

Levers also have various effects depending on how the forces are applied. For example a lever of class 2 tends to rotate in the opposite direction to when the force of effort is applied (like a teeter-totter). If you push on the handle of a door the force will create similar rotational effects to this.

However, levers don't create energy. They simply multiply the force you apply by making a small amount effort over a large distance into a greater amount of force applied over a shorter distance. Levers are used to lift heavy objects and transport huge quantities of cargo. This is also the reason behind the levers that are found in many everyday tools such as crowbars and fishing rods, hammer claws and even your own legs when you stand on the hand brake of your vehicle.
