How to Evaluate Effort using Length and Load?

Effort using Length and Load evaluator uses Effort on Lever = Length of Load Arm*Load on lever/Length of Effort Arm to evaluate the Effort on Lever, The Effort using Length and Load formula is defined as the ratio of the product of the load and length of load arm to length of effort arm. Effort on Lever is denoted by P symbol.

How to evaluate Effort using Length and Load using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Effort using Length and Load, enter Length of Load Arm (l2), Load on lever (W) & Length of Effort Arm (l1) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Effort using Length and Load

What is the formula to find Effort using Length and Load?
The formula of Effort using Length and Load is expressed as Effort on Lever = Length of Load Arm*Load on lever/Length of Effort Arm. Here is an example- 310.8611 = 0.095*2945/0.9.
How to calculate Effort using Length and Load?
With Length of Load Arm (l2), Load on lever (W) & Length of Effort Arm (l1) we can find Effort using Length and Load using the formula - Effort on Lever = Length of Load Arm*Load on lever/Length of Effort Arm.
What are the other ways to Calculate Effort on Lever?
Here are the different ways to Calculate Effort on Lever-
  • Effort on Lever=Load on lever/Mechanical Advantage of LeverOpenImg
  • Effort on Lever=Bending Moment in Lever/(Length of Effort Arm-Diameter of Lever Fulcrum Pin)OpenImg
Can the Effort using Length and Load be negative?
No, the Effort using Length and Load, measured in Force cannot be negative.
Which unit is used to measure Effort using Length and Load?
Effort using Length and Load is usually measured using the Newton[N] for Force. Exanewton[N], Meganewton[N], Kilonewton[N] are the few other units in which Effort using Length and Load can be measured.
