As a part of our simple machine study, we explored levers.
Teams were given a block, ruler, and half a cardboard tube. They needed to set up the three objects to simulate a lever, fulcrum and load. Next, they labeled the three parts. Finally, they came to the assumption that it is easier to lift a heavy load when the fulcrum is a bit closer to the load when compared to far away.
Way to go scientists!
