All mechanisms have some things in common:

They involve some kind of motion.

They involve some kind of force.

They make a job easier to do.

They need some kind of input to make them work.

They produce some kind of output

The Mechanisms

It´s probably the first machine to be used by humans. It´s a simple machine, because you only need a stick (bar, rigid beam)

The Lever is a bar with 3 components:

There are three types of levers. See what element is in the middle: effort, fulcrum or load.

• Class 1. The fulcrum is in the middle

•Class 2. The load is in the middle

•Class 3. The effort is in the middle

Archimedes’ Law of the Lever

The Levers. Law of the Lever

W1 is the value of effort.

d1 is the distance between effort and fulcrum.

W2 is the value of load.

d2 is the distance between load and fulcrum.

Archimedes of Syracuse (c. 287 BC – c. 212 BC)

“Give me a place to stand on, and I will move the earth.”

The Pulley

There are 2 kinds of pulley:

No mechanical advantage:

single pulley

With mechanical advantage:

system pulley

The Single Pulley

EffortLoad

pulley

rope

To make the job of lifting large weights easier.

You can’t lift more weight than your own weight. (Limit, Maximun)

The System Pulley

To make the job of lifting large weights easier.

The effort is less than the charge: this is the mechanical advantage.
