The fixed point the lever pivots on is called the fulcrum. The input force is moving the bar away from the fixed point. Real life example is a door knob]]> 2019-04-03 14:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/bucketforhucks/n698t83mz7y6/wish/348089162 bucketforhucks https://padlet.com/bucketforhucks/n698t83mz7y6/wish/348090566 2019-04-03 14:26:36 UTC https://padlet.com/bucketforhucks/n698t83mz7y6/wish/348090566 bucketforhucks https://padlet.com/bucketforhucks/n698t83mz7y6/wish/348092048 A grooved wheel with a rope, chain, or cable running along the groove.
The input force is pulling down on one side, so the other side goes up.
