Determine and list two practical examples of levers (in the body or daily living) for each lever class. Do not use examples already discussed in this chapter. For each example identify the force, axis, and resistance. Also explain the advantage of using each lever- that is, whether it is to achieve balance, force, motion, speed, or range of motion.

Expert Solution

You did not the book chapter which you have followed. So, I don´t know the examples of levers which you have already aware of. I am giving some practical examples of levers (in the body or daily living) for each lever class.

Level class Example Force Axis Resistance Advantage Provided
1st elbow extension triceps applying force to olecranon

elbow

non-supported forearm greater than 1
1st Head balanced on neck in
flexing/extending
agonist produces force joint axis antagonist supplies resistance almost equal to 1
2nd entire body during push-up reaction force of ground pushing against hands

foot is axis of rotation

weight of body's center of gravity greater than 1
2nd small stapler force by your hand at one end hinge at the end occurs due the resistance by the staple force is applied almost directly in line of the load, giving no mechanical advantage
3rd batting moving bat toward ball with hand of far arm supporting lower portion of bat with hand of near arm ball less than 1
3rd sweeping action of a broom push the handle near the middle the handle of the broom near the top the bristles at the other end less than one
