  • 10. 

    What is this lever?

    • 1st class

    • 2nd class

    • 3rd class

    Correct Answer
    A. 2nd class
  • 11. 

    This is a first class lever in which the fulcrum has been moved closer to the muscle contraction. This results in:

    • Speed advantage over force

    • Force advantage over speed

    Correct Answer
    A. Speed advantage over force
    Explanation
    Catapult: Quick release, long lever arm

  • 12. 

    If the ball in the hand is replaced with a bigger ball that is twice the weight of the original ball, does the center of gravity shift towards or away from the original force M?

    • Towards force M

    • Further away from force M

    Correct Answer
    A. Further away from force M
    Explanation
    Because the center of gravity shifts away from the original force M, the new distance must be added to the original vector.
