A basic machine known as a lever is made up of a long beam or rod that is fastened to a pivot point (fulcrum), onto which a load is mounted and an effort force is delivered.
Levers offer a mechanical advantage by lowering the amount of force needed to move a load. Levers with a longer length offer a better mechanical advantage.
