What is a Class 1 lever?
A lever where the fulcrum is positioned between the effort and the load.
Examples include seesaws and crowbars.
What characterizes a Class 2 lever?
A lever where the load is positioned between the effort and the fulcrum.
Examples include wheelbarrows.
What is a Class 3 lever?
A lever where the effort is applied between the load and the fulcrum.
Examples include tweezers and fishing rods.
What does a gear do in a mechanical system?
Gears transmit torque and change the direction of motion.
They can also increase or decrease speed.
What is the role of input and output in a mechanical system?
Input refers to the energy or force applied, while output refers to the energy or force produced.
In mechanical systems, input is often transformed into output via levers or gears.
Fill in the blank: A __________ lever decreases the effort needed to move a load.
Class 2
True or False: A Class 3 lever increases the force needed to move a load.
True
What factors are important when selecting gears in a mechanical system?
Size, diameter, and tooth count.
These factors affect the mechanical advantage and speed ratio.
What is the purpose of a mechanical advantage in levers?
To amplify the force applied to move a load.
Mechanical advantage is crucial for lifting heavy objects with less effort.
Fill in the blank: The __________ of a lever is the point where it pivots.
fulcrum
Define torque in the context of gears and levers.
Torque is the rotational force applied around an axis.
It is a key concept in understanding how gears and levers operate.
What is the term for the mechanical means of direct energy conversion?
mechaicel
