Cyrtomium falcatum. 1  Aptly named, Japanese holly fern produces fronds that do indeed resemble holly leaves with their glossy, deep green leathery appearance. 2  It needs moist but well-drained soil in a protected location to thrive. 3  It also makes for a good houseplant in climates where it isn't hardy.
A baseball bat is a third-class lever because the fulcrum is on the  end of one side, the effect force is in the middle, and the  resistant force, the load, is at the top.
1 Scissors and pliers are examples of class 1 levers. 2  Class 2 levers have the fulcrum at one end, like wheelbarrows, nail clippers, and nutcrackers. 3  Class 3 levers also have the fulcrum at the end, but you exert force in the center and the higher force is produced at the tips, as in tweezers and tongs.
