उत्तर
Class II levers are designed to have M.A. > 1.
Reason:
In class II levers, the load is in between the effort and fulcrum. Thus, the effort arm is always longer than the load arm and less effort is needed to overcome a large load. Hence, M.A > 1

Give one example of a class I lever where mechanical advantage is more than one ?
