Question

Which of the following is an example of a first class lever?

A.

Ice tongs

B.

Wheel barrow

C.

A pair of scissors

D.

Nut cracker

Correct option is C


A first-class lever is a type of lever where the fulcrum (pivot point) is located between the effort (input force) and the load (output force).
The arrangement is: Effort = Fulcrum − Load
· A pair of scissors consists of two levers joined at a fulcrum in the center.
· The effort is applied at the handles.
· The load (cutting force) is exerted on the blades.
· The fulcrum is the pivot or hinge in between, making it a first-class lever.
