That's a tall order. I may need a lever to get up that high. For all the tools I will mention, some of them from a lever when you hold onto them and use them, others are levers in themselves. Let's have some fun, so here we go.
First Class levers are like a teeter-totter or see-saw, a pair of scissors - which is two 1st class levers together, but I'll count as just one. There is also one in your elbow, one in your ankle, and another one in your jaw. That makes five.
Second Class levers can be found in wheelbarrows, nutcrackers, your jaw and ankle, and vise grips; that's five again. Let's make it six with a canoe paddle, it's also a second class lever when you paddle with it in water.
The last one is the easiest:
Third Class levers can be found in lots more places, they are much more common. Here's a short, but diverse list: broom, fishing pole, hammer, your knee, pen, pencil, the joints in your fingers and toes not counting the first knuckle, a tennis racket, oh shucks just about every sporting device that you swing is a 3rd class lever when in use. The gas peddle in your car. Chopsticks, wooden spoons, fork, knife, spoon, toothbrush.
And there are a whole lot more of all three.

What are 1 class levers?
Lever belongs to the category of simple machines. They are three types of levers 1. First class levers 2. Second class levers 3. Third class levers In the first class levers fulcrum is in between applied force and load. common examples are Crowbar , Pair of scissors , SeeSaw , Skull and neck in our body .
First Second and Third class levers are determined by the location of what?
the fulcrum
Why are first and second class levers known as force multipliers?
if the distance is 5
What kind of lever has a fulcrum resistance arm and effort arm?
first class levers actually in front of the effort and resistance forces
Do second and third class levers both have the fulcrum between the effort and the load?
Actually, the First Class lever is the only one that has.

Examples of first class levers?
first class levers have fulcrum at center and load and effort at extremes, examples are seesaw and scissor.
First Second and Third class levers are determined by the location of what?

Is opening a tin of paint with a spoon a 1st class lever?
Opening a tin of paint with a spoon is an example of a simple machine called a first class lever. There are three different types of levers, which are first class, second class, and third class levers.
What kind of lever has a fulcrum resistance arm and effort arm?
first class levers actually in front of the effort and resistance forces
Do second and third class levers both have the fulcrum between the effort and the load?
Actually, the First Class lever is the only one that has.
What are some examples of class 3 levers?
First class levers are like see-saws. The fulcrum (turning point) comes between the effort and the load. So if you push down on the effort the load goes up. With second class levers the load comes between the effort and the fulcrum. This is good for catapulting things. Third class levers have the effort between the load and the fulcrum. An example would be a fishing rod. The fish on the end is the load, your hand on the rod is the effort and the hand at the end is the fulcrum.
What do first class levers do?
First class levers change direction of force applied, like using a crow bar to open a door.In a first class lever, the fulcrum is between the force arm and the resistance arm. Seesaws, crowbars, and oars are first-class levers.
