noun
- (geometry) A certain three-dimensional surface described by a moving straight line, used to illustrate the motions of a rigid body and the forces that act upon it.
- (geometry) A cylinder with elliptical cross-section.
- (medicine) A ribbon-like mucous cast frequently found in the urine in cases of mild irritation of the kidney.
noun
- (physics, usually with “mechanical”) a measure of opposition to motion of something subjected to a force; the ratio of force to velocity treated as complex quantities.
- (physics, usually with “acoustic” or “sound”) the ratio of sound pressure to volume flow rate treated as complex quantities.
- (physics) A measure of the opposition to the flow of an alternating current in a circuit; the aggregation of its resistance, and inductive and capacitive reactances; the ratio of voltage to current treated as complex quantities.
- The act of impeding; that which impedes; a hindrance.
- a material's opposition to the flow of electric current; measured in ohms
noun
- (mechanics) A rigid piece which is capable of turning about one point, or axis (fulcrum), and in which are two or more other points where forces are applied; — used for transmitting and modifying force and motion.
- Specifically, a bar of metal, wood or other rigid substance, used to exert a pressure, or sustain a weight, at one point of its length, by receiving a force or power at a second, and turning at a third on a fixed point called a fulcrum. It is usually named as the first of the six mechanical powers, and is of three kinds, according as either the fulcrum F, the weight W, or the power P, respectively, is situated between the other two, as in the figures.
- A small such piece to trigger or control a mechanical device (like a switch or a button).
- (mechanics) A bar, as a capstan bar, applied to a rotatory piece to turn it.
- (mechanics) An arm on a rock shaft, to give motion to the shaft or to obtain motion from it.
- (rare) A levee.
- a simple machine that gives a mechanical advantage when given a fulcrum
- a flat metal tumbler in a lever lock
- a rigid bar pivoted about a fulcrum
verb
- (chiefly UK, finance) To increase the share of debt in the capitalization of a business.
- (transitive) To move with a lever.
- (figuratively, transitive) To use (something) like a lever (in an abstract sense).
- (figuratively, transitive) To use, operate or move (something) like a lever (physically).
- to move or force, especially in an effort to get something open
