Leverage definition, the action of a lever, a rigid bar that pivots about one point and that is used to move an object at a second point by a force applied at a third. See more. Dictionary.com
A lever is any elongated, rigid object that rotates around a fixed point called the fulcrum (fig. 9.15). Familiar examples include a seesaw and a crowbar. Rotation occurs when an effort applied to one point on the lever overcomes a resistance (load) located at some other point. The part of a lever from the fulcrum to the point of effort is called the effort arm, and the part from the fulcrum to the point of resistance is the resistance arm. In the body, a long bone acts as a lever, a joint serves as the fulcrum, and the effort is generated by a muscle attached to the bone.
