Give one example of a class I lever where mechanical advantage is more than one ?
Draw a diagram of a lever which is always used as a force multiplier. How is the effort arm related to the load arm in such a lever?
The lever for which the mechanical advantage is less than 1 has :
A 4 m long rod of negligible weight is to be balanced about a point 125 cm from one end and a load of 18 kgf is suspended at a point 60 cm from the support on the shorter arm.
- If a weight W is placed at a distance of 250 cm from the support on the longer arm to balance the rod, find W.
- If a weight 5 kgf is kept to balance the rod, find its position.
- To which class of lever does it belong?
A man uses a crowbar of length 1.5 m to raise a load of 75 kgf by putting a sharp edge below the bar at a distance 1 m from his hand.
- Draw a diagram of the arrangement showing the fulcrum (F), load (L) and effort (E) with their directions.
- State the kind of lever.
- Calculate:
- load arm,
- effort arm,
- mechanical advantage and
- the effort needed.
The following belong to which class of lever?
Sugar tongs
The following belong to which class of lever?
Wheelbarrow
Shears, used for cutting metals and scissors used for cutting clothes are both examples of levers of the first order. However, whereas the shears always have short blades and long handles, the scissors often have blades much longer than the handles. Explain, why this is so?
The following are an example of levers. State the class of lever to which each one belongs giving the relative positions of Load (L), Effort (E), Fulcrum (F):
(i) Scissors (ii) Sugar tongs (iii) Nutcracker (iv) Pliers.
In the diagram shown alongside a claw hammer, mark the fulcrum (F) and indicate the directions of load (L) and effort (E) with arrows. What class of lever is it? Give one more example of this class of lever.
