Step-by-step explanation:

In second class levers the load is between the effort (force) and the fulcrum. A common example is a wheelbarrow where the effort moves a large distance to lift a heavy load, with the axle and wheel as the fulcrum. In a second class lever the effort moves over a large distance to raise the load a small distance.
