Simple machines.

Okay I just woke up so this isn't the best piece of work I can make. Sorry for the late post... I've been very busy in Jkt. The simple machine I'm going to write about is the lever. The item? Tongs. It's fulcrum is at the end and the effort in the middle. Load is at the other end. To make it simple it's like this : LEF... Now, as the load moves over a larger distance than the effort and since the action occurs at the same time, the load actually moves faster. Okay, I forgot to add ONE point. This type of lever is actually the third-class lever. In third class levers, effort is applied between the load on one end and the fulcrum on the opposite end. How does these tongs make our lives easier? Well, it helps to not pick up rubbish by your hand, put coal in the barbecue grill or even take it out. In simple, the tongs helps us by picking up and gripping things. The few of the many types of tongs are:  sugar-tongs, asparagus-tongs,  blacksmith's tongs and crucible-tongs.

Note: Okay... this is sooo not my style of writing... I'm like a buisnesswoman with no sense of humour.... sorry.
