## Transcription

2 Lifting A Load 2 5. Move the spring scale or force sensor to 15.0 cm from the fulcrum. 6. Move the spring scale or force sensor to 10.0 cm from the fulcrum. 7. Move the spring scale or force sensor to 5.0 cm from the fulcrum. 8. Move the spring scale or force sensor to 2.5 cm from the fulcrum. Data: Position of Effort Force (cm from fulcrum) Effort Force (Newtons) Graph this information using a line graph: To do this you must remember: the independent or goes on the X-axis, the dependent goes on the Y-axis. Number each axis in even intervals. Intervals are determined by looking at the smallest and largest numbers in the data table. Label each axis with the variable (position of effort, effort) and the units used to measure the variable (cm, newtons). Give the graph a title that describes the information in the graph.

3 Lifting A Load 3 Title Data Analysis: Describe the relationship you observe (what does position of effort have to do with the force needed to lift the load?)

4 Lifting A Load 4 Part 2 Procedure: 1. Using the lever set up, put the load 25.0 cm from the fulcrum. 2. Put the spring scale or force sensor 10.0 cm from the fulcrum on the other side. Measure and record 3. Move the load to 20.0 cm from the fulcrum. Leave the spring scale 4. Move the load to 15.0 cm from the fulcrum. Leave the spring scale 5. Move the load to 10.0 cm from the fulcrum. Leave the spring scale 6. Move the load to 5.0 cm from the fulcrum. Leave the spring scale 7. Move the load to 2.5 cm from the fulcrum. Leave the spring scale Data Position of Load Force (cm from fulcrum) Effort Force (Newtons) Graph this data using the same guidelines rules you followed previously.

5 Lifting A Load 5 Title Data Analysis: Describe the relationship you observe (what does position of load have to do with the force needed to lift the load?)

6 Lifting A Load 6 Conclusions: 1. What are the four parts of a lever system? 2. In what ways can a lever provide an advantage? 3. What is the relationship between the load and effort that gives a lever user the greatest advantage? 4. When the load is at a constant position on the lever arm, how can you make it easier to lift the load?

7 Lifting A Load 7 5. What is the difference between the weight of the load and the amount of effort needed to lift it? 6. How does your graph of Part 2 compare to your graph of Part 1? _ 9. Predict: How much effort would it take to lift a load at 10cm if the effort were applied at 22 cm? At 13 cm? At 30cm? Explain your answers. 10. Predict: If a 4.0 N effort were required to lift the load at 10 cm, where was the effort applied? Explain your answer.
