Answer 28

`Give me a lever long enough and a fulcrum on which to place it, and I shall move the world.` - Archimedes

Answer 29

I bet Archimedes was not joking, but I also bet that he wouldn't be able to

Answer 30

Lets calculate it

Answer 31

All we use is \[L_1 = \frac{ m_2 \times L_2 }{ m_1 }\] where L2 is the length of the lever, where we note archimedes himself is doing it, so he's 68 kg approximately, and the fulcrum being placed 16000 km from the earth. m2 is the mass of earth which is 5.972 x 10^(24) kg \[L_1 = \frac{ (5.972 \times 10^{24}kg) (16000 km) }{ (68kg) }\]

Answer 32

So the lever has to be 1.405x10^(27) km long xD

Answer 33

you really weren't joking :) that's so cool

Answer 34

Haha nope, but good luck finding a lever that long

Answer 35

anything with gears
lever or pulley system
