| What is a fulcrum? | It is a point which a lever pivots. |
| What do most levers do? | They increase the size of the effort you can apply or reduce the effort needed, making the job easier. |
| What is a mechanical advantage? | It is the ratio of a load force to the effort force used by a machine. |
| The way a lever operates depends on three things. What are they? | The position of the effort, load and fulcrum. |
| What is a first-class lever? | Lever with effort and loads located at each end, and fulcrum in the center. |
| What is a second-class lever? | Lever with the fulcrum located at one end, the effort at the other and load in the center. |
| What is a third-class lever? | Lever with the fulcrum located at one end, with the load at the other and effort in the center. |
| What are some other examples of third-class levers? | Tweezers and tongs. |
