Lever/Lever

A lever is a rigid bar that is pivotally positioned around a point (known as a the fulcrum). When you apply a force to the end of the lever, it is likely to cause it to turn the fulcrum to the direction of the applied force. This motion increases the force and allows you to lift or move things that would normally require more force to lift.

The distance between the fulcrum of the lever and the point where you apply force determines the most effective movement. This is known as the mechanical advantage. The more the lever is extended, the larger the mechanical advantage. You can determine the mechanical advantage by dividing the distance from the fulcrum until the point at which you're applying the force by the distance between the fulcrum and where you will end the lever.
