Does anyone has any documents to prove (law of lever)? Thank you!
The discussion revolves around the "Law of Levers," with participants seeking evidence and proofs related to this principle. The scope includes theoretical understanding, mathematical derivations, and practical applications of levers, particularly in contexts like hammers pulling nails.
Participants express varying interpretations of what constitutes a "proof" of the Law of Levers, indicating that there is no consensus on the specific nature of the evidence being sought. Multiple competing views remain regarding the best approach to proving the law and the types of examples that illustrate its application.
There are limitations in the discussion regarding the definitions of "proof" and the assumptions underlying the application of the Law of Levers. The conversation reflects a range of interpretations and approaches without resolving these nuances.
There are far fewer keystrokes involved in clicking on Google than in composing a question on PF. I hope you did that first.avast2 said:Summary:: Prove law of lever

wrobel said:the angular momentum theorem is proved in textbooks. "law of lever" is a particular case
What you are showing is not an actual 'proof'. It is an example of where that 'law' applies. The 'Principle of Moments' can be applied (look it up) to situations where there is a fulcrum (pivot) that can be identified and where two or more forces in equilibrium and where they are acting can be identified. See-saws are the easiest examples but the principle can also be applied to a hammer and other wrenches when the geometry of the two forces is not so obvious.avast2 said:I attach pictures ( - the proof that I had ; the kind of lever that I want to search the proof)
This may help:avast2 said:I searched some proof online but actually I want to find the proof of the kind of lever (such as Hammers pull the nails)
Thanh you!

What exactly do you mean by "proof" or "prove" in this context? In physics, you prove theories/laws with experiments, but people tend not to use the word "prove" much. Do you mean a mathematical proof or derivation?avast2 said:I searched some proof online but actually I want to find the proof of the kind of lever (such as Hammers pull the nails)
