Make work easier to do by:
• Increasing the size of an applied force• Changing the direction of an applied force• Changing the distance over which a force acts
There will always be a trade-off!!!

Create three machines to lift the mass in three different ways
Use the following materials:•Ruler•Marker•tape

What goes in…
Input is also called “effort:”-Effort force is the force applied to a machine-Effort distance is the distance across which the effort is applied
What comes out…

Output is also called “resistance:”-Resistance force is the force exerted by a machine-Resistance distance is the distance across which the machine applies effort

EFFORT
Fixed point about whichthe lever rotates
The mass beinglifted by a lever
Force used tolift the load
Review: Force is a push or a pull on an object, and is measured in Newtons

Explore the relationship between effort force required to lift a load, and the length of the resistance distance.
Resistance Force = ____ N
Use the following materials:•Ruler•Marker•Tape•Spring Scale•100-g mass

Data Collection: - repeat for 3 trials at this fulcrum position for consistency - average the effort needed for this fulcrum position

The mechanical advantage in a “perfect” world; predicted mechanical advantage
The real mechanical advantage that results when the machine is in use

What did you determine, through your experiment, about the relationship
between the (length of the) resistance arm and the effort needed to lift the load?
