1. Lesson 1 Types of levers The lever: Is a rigid bar that rotates around a fixed point called the fulcrum, and is affected by force and resistance. Ice holder Manual broom Hockey bat Tweezers Crowbar Nutcracker A set of pictures for some levers

2. Levers make the tasks perform more easily by doing one or more of the following functions: 1- Increasing force: As the crowbar and nutcracker. 2- Increasing distance: As the manual broom. 3- Increasing speed: As in the hockey bat. 4-Moving the force from one place to another: As the manual broom. 5-Accuracy in performance: As the tweezers 6-Avoid dangers: As the coal holder.

4. In the second class levers: The force of resistance is between the force of effort and the fulcrum. The nutcrackers The soda-water opener The wheel barrow Examples of second class levers

5. In the third class levers: The force of effort is between the fulcrum and the force of resistance. The fish hook The manual broom The sweat holder Examples of third class levers
