1 Just a little Bit of ffort: xploring Levers Activity Activity Objectives: By setting up levers and measuring forces, students will be able to: Name and define the parts of a lever Describe the location of the fulcrum, effort and resistance in each class of lever Investigate the forces involved in each class of lever Draw conclusions regarding appropriate application of each class of lever Activity Description: Students will explore the parts of a lever and will build a model of each class of lever on a wooden stand using dowels and modified wooden rulers. Using a spring scale and hanging weights, students will study the forces and will determine the advantage of each type of lever. As a grand finale to the activity, students will apply their newly found knowledge of levers as they compete in a contest called the Little Bit of ffort Contest. Students will work in their groups to design the most efficient lever in each class, ie the lever that can move the most weight with the least amount of effort. Activity Background: A lever is a rigid bar moving about a fixed point (fulcrum). More specifically, a lever consists of an effort force, resistance force, rigid bar and a fulcrum. The effort in a lever is a force applied to the lever in a specific direction and will cause movement in the lever if not balanced by an opposing force. The resistance* in a lever is the force that opposes the effort force. The fulcrum in a lever is the support around which the lever pivots. Levers are classified according to the position of the fulcrum, resistance (load), and effort relative to each other. The combination of these relative locations results in first class, second class and third class levers. * esistance is also called Load Activity Overview 2004 The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio 1

A large effort gains speed of motion in this type of lever. It is the most common lever type in the human body.

4 Activity Management Suggestions: Students should work in groups of two to four. emind students to use good time management skills and to divide the jobs equally so every member of the group has a fair share of the tasks. During the processing out time, be sure that students have discovered the unexpected result related to third class levers. Students expect to find that each lever will reduce the amount of force needed to move an object and will be surprised to find that the third class lever actually has a mechanical disadvantage. This concept will be important for students as they progress to the next activity on biomechanics of levers in the human body. xtension: Students can collect household tools and determine which type of lever they represent.

7 Just a Little Bit of ffort: xploring Levers Student Activity Page Activity Introduction: How many times have you used a broom, rake, pair of pliers, wheelbarrow, pry bar or played on a see saw? ach of these items involves a simple machine; the lever. Simple machines are designed to make work easier in some way, so they are good to have around! Activity Background: A lever is a rigid bar moving about a fixed point (fulcrum). More specifically, a lever consists of an effort force, resistance force (also called load), rigid bar and a fulcrum. The effort in a lever is a force applied to the lever in a specific direction and will cause movement in the lever if not balanced by an opposing force. The resistance in a lever is the force that opposes the effort force. The fulcrum in a lever is the support around which the lever pivots. Levers are classified according to the position of the fulcrum, resistance, and effort relative to each other. The combination of these relative locations results in first class, second class and third class levers. First class lever (F)- The ffort () and esistance () are located on opposite sides of fulcrum as shown in Figure 1: First Class Lever below. xamples of a first class lever include pry bars, see saws, crowbars.

An example of a second class lever is a wheelbarrow. Figure 2 Second Class Lever Third class lever (F) - The ffort () and esistance () are located on the same side of fulcrum, but the ffort () acts between fulcrum and the esistance () as shown in Figure 3 Third Class Lever shown below. xamples of a third class lever include a shovel and a broom.

9 Activity Materials: (per group) Copy of Student Activity Page Packet 1 Copy of Student Data Page Packet per student Wooden stand with hook inserted Wooden ruler 3 Binder clips 1 1/4 wide, 5/8 capacity Hanging weight set Spring scale measurement scale needs to match that of hanging weight set Instructions: (ead each instruction and check off each step as it is completed.) 1. Observe the diagrams of each class of lever in the background on this Student Activity Page. Be sure you can define each part of a lever and that you can describe how each class of lever is constructed. 2. First Class Levers a. Using the wooden stand with hook and wooden ruler, construct a first class lever. Place one binder clip onto the ruler so it will hang at its center point on the hook of the wooden stand. Attach a second binder clip so it is centered over the 2 cm mark on the wooden ruler. Place a 1 N weight so that it hangs from a third binder clip placed at 28 cm on the wooden ruler. See Figure 1 Constructing a First Class Lever. 2cm Spring Scale Stand Hook 28cm Pull up to measure force required to balance Binder Clip 1 N weight Figure 1 Constructing a First Class Lever b. Pull on the spring scale until the wooden ruler is level; the lever now is balanced and is in equilibrium. c. ead the force you are applying (ffort) in Newtons on the spring scale and record it in Table 1, xploring First Class Levers on your Student Data Page. d. epeat steps a c placing the hanging weight (esistance) at 4 cm and the spring scale to measure the ffort in Newtons at 28 cm. e. epeat steps a c, using the locations for the ffort and esistance provided in Table 1, xploring First Class Levers. ecord your measurements in Table 1, xploring First Class Levers on your Student Data Page The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio 9
10 3. Second Class Levers a. Create a second class lever on the wooden stand. Place the fulcrum at 2 cm, the hanging weight (esistance) at 6 cm and the spring scale to measure the ffort force in Newtons at 28 cm. Balance the lever so the wooden ruler is level and read the amount of force you are exerting to keep the lever in equilibrium. ecord this information in Table 2 xploring in a Second Class Levers. b. epeat step a using the locations for the esistance and ffort and recording the data in Table 2 xploring Second Class Levers. 4. Third Class Levers a. Create a third class lever on the wooden stand. Place the fulcrum at 2 cm, the hanging weight (esistance) at 6 cm and the spring scale to measure the ffort force in Newtons at 28 cm. Pull on the spring scale to balance the lever so that the ruler is level and thus in equilibrium. ead the amount of force you are exerting to keep the lever in equilibrium and record all data in Table 3 xploring Third Class Levers. b. epeat step a using the other locations for the esistance and ffort and recording the data in Table 3 xploring Third Class Levers. 5. The Great Little Bit of ffort Contest a. After you have explored the three classes of levers and have processed out the information to be sure you understand levers, you are ready to enter The Great Little Bit of ffort Contest. b. In this contest, you and your group members will apply what you have learned about levers and will design a first class lever that can move the greatest amount of weight with the least amount of effort. c. When you are ready for the judging, raise your hand so your teacher can come to your work area and verify the results. While you are waiting for the teacher to verify your results, make a drawing of your lever design on the contest entry form. Be sure to label the fulcrum, effort and resistance and label the locations of each in cm. d. epeat steps b c for your second class lever design. e. epeat steps b c for your third class lever design. f. When you finish with all three parts of the contest, you will complete Table 4, The Little Bit of ffort Contest, including calculating the ratio of esistance Force ffort Force for each class of levers you design. The ratio you calculate is called the mechanical advantage of your lever system. g. When you finish Table 4, fill out the Little Bit of ffort Contest ntry Form and wait for the results! 2004 The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio 10
