प्रश्न
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?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Because the effort arm of a Class II lever is longer than the load arm and the mechanical advantage is always greater than 1, the lever multiplies force.
