Question

The type of lever in which effort is in the middle between the fulcrum and the load

• A. First Class
• B. Second Class
• C. Third Class
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is C

Third Class

These are the levers in which the fulcrum is at one end and the force is applied in the middle and the weight is on the other end. The order is represented as a weight-force-fulcrum. In this case, we have to apply more energy to displace the weight to a longer distance.

Example:

• Fishing rod
• A broom
• A baseball bat
• A bow and arrow
• Human jaw
