Levers and Pulleys
by Anonymous · ⭐ 1 · 🍴 0
Lift heavy objects with ease just by moving the fulcrum! ⚖️ In the Lever tab, push the fulcrum toward the object—watch 20kg drop to 5kg on the bar graph. Move it toward your hand and it jumps to 80kg. 🔗 In the Pulley tab, pull the rope with fixed, movable, or compound pulleys. See how halving the force means pulling twice as much rope! 🎯 Try the Challenge mode to guess the required force. Supports 7 languages.
About this app
This interactive science tool helps users learn the mechanical advantage of levers and pulleys through visual simulations. Users can adjust fulcrum positions to see how force changes relative to load weight, or switch between fixed, movable, and compound pulley systems. An interactive quiz mode tests understanding with generated calculation challenges and score tracking.
