Lever Systems
DefinitionsLever – A bar that is free to pivot around a center point (Changes direction and/or amount of force).Fulcrum – The fixed point around which a lever pivots
(fulcrums can take many shapes).
Effort Force – The force applied to a machine to cause motion of an object. (Measured in Newtons N)
Resistance Force – The force exerted by an object due to gravity or friction. (Measured in Newtons N)
Mechanical Advantage – The number of times a machine multiplies the effort force.
(MA = Ed/Rd)

Lever Systems Continued
Effort Arm – The part of the lever to which the effort force is applied.
Definitions Continued
Effort Distance – The length of the part of the lever from the fulcrum to the effort end of the lever.
(The length of the Effort Arm.)
Resistance Arm – The part of the lever on which the resistance force is exerted.
Resistance Distance - The length of the part of the lever from the fulcrum to the resistance end of the lever. (The length of the Resistance Arm.)

Mechanical Advantage
Mechanical Advantage = Effort Distance / Resistance Distance
MA = 3 / 1 = 3
![Page 21: Levers](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062420/55cdf10fbb61eb04538b4839/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Lever Force and Mechanical Advantage Formulas
Mechanical Advantage = Effort Distance / Resistance Distance
Effort Distance = Mechanical advantage x Resistance Distance
Resistance Distance = Effort Distance / Mechanical Advantage
MA = Ed / Rd
Ed = MA x Rd
Rd = Ed / MA
These formulas are all dirivations of the first formula. If you know your Algebra you should be able to solve for any of the individual
parts of each equation if the other two parts are known.

Effect of Pulling Up, Down, Or Straight
Three Kinds of FrictionSliding Friction –Two surfaces sliding against each other.
Rolling Friction – one surface rolls over another surface.
Fluid Friction – When a lubricant is used between to objects that are sliding over each other.
