Is it possible for a first or second class lever to have a mechanical advantage less than one?

Yes, it is possible for a first or second class lever to have a mechanical advantage less than one. This occurs when the effort arm is shorter than the resistance arm in a first-class lever or when the effort arm is longer than the resistance arm in a second-class lever. In these cases, the force applied might be greater than the load but the lever will have a mechanical advantage less than one.


Does a second class lever always has an input force that is less than the output force?

Yes, in a second-class lever, the input force is always smaller than the output force. This lever configuration allows for a mechanical advantage, making it easier to lift heavy loads with less effort. Examples of second-class levers include wheelbarrows and nutcrackers.


The mechanical advantage of a second class lever?

The mechanical advantage of a second-class lever is always greater than 1. This means that the output force is greater than the input force, making it advantageous for lifting heavy loads. Examples of second-class levers include wheelbarrows and nutcrackers.


What is less than a picosecond?

I'm tempted to reply ½ a pecosecond(!) However, I think you're asking what is the next description below pecosecond; it is a femtosecond (10−15 second). There are 1000 femtoseconds in a pecosecond.


How would the distance the car travels each second change if it were slowing down?

In that case, each second the distance travelled will be less than the second before that.
