Question

Describe the second class lever with suitable example from sports.

Short Answer

Solution

A second-class lever is distinguished by the load (resistance) being located between the fulcrum and the effort (force applied). This configuration enables the lever to provide a mechanical advantage, allowing you to move a heavier load with less force. For example, consider the ankle joint in running and jumping.
