If the load is 13 cm from the fulcrum, how much effort is needed to lifth the load ? Help me.

Sagot :

That depends on a few things that you haven't told us about the setup.
So I'm going to assume one of them, and then give you the answer
in terms of another one:

-- Assume a Class-I lever . . . the fulcrum is between the load and the effort.

-- Then the effort needed to lift the load is

(the weight of the load) x (13 / the distance between the fulcrum and the effort)
