    A lever is a rigid bar that pivots around a fulcrum to multiply force. There are three classes of levers - first class levers have the fulcrum between the effort and load, second class levers have the effort between the fulcrum and load, and third class levers have the load between the effort and fulcrum. Common examples of levers include seesaws, crowbars, nut crackers, and fishing rods.

    LEVER
    it is a rigid bar that moves about a
    point called FULCRUM (F). The
    force that makes a lever work are
    the EFFORT OF FORCE (E) applied,
    and the RESISTANCE (R) or the
    resting force of load
    FULCRUM
    it is the point on which a
    lever rests or is
    supported and on which
    it pivots.
