Re: Fulcrum for Compound Machines? General Discussion about useful equipment as well.
Can someone please explain how to make it so the fulcrum fits perfectly with the beams? Like did you guys just use a drill and drill the same size screw into the beams and use that as the fulcrum? Or was there a hole drilled and a dowel was used as the fulcrum? And if so how would you find the ...

Re: Creation Of The Lever
Thanks so much for your time helping
My question is what do you mean by the string, is that what connects the two levers? And also, you said that the fixed mass to the fulcrum is the same distance as the string to the fulcrum; does that mean that your string can be easily moved to fit this criteria ...

Re: Creation Of The Lever
Thanks, but I’m still unclear on how you would connect the two levers in order to calculate the ratio. Any help?

Re: Machines B/C
Thanks for that tip! I have another question though, in what way would you connect the two levers? Would you put them side by side and how would you calculate the ratios with the two levers?
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Machines B/C
Can someone please help me get started on my lever designs? I’ve made two prototypes, both of which do not work as intended. I am in division C, and my question is do I need counterweights to balance the class 2 or class 3 lever? And also how do I ensure my levers are in equilibrium and will be ...
