What does every lever has two parts, an effort arm and resistance arm mean?
A:
The arms of a lever are called "arms" because the two ends of a lever are like a person's two arms, stretched out.
One end is called the "effort arm" because effort is exerted there. The other is called the "resistance arm" because resistance is exerted there.
You push down on the effort arm, and that lifts the resistance arm. Like a seesaw.
