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.
Similarly to a second class lever, a third class lever has the fulcrum and load force at opposite ends, and the effort force somewhere between them. Our broom is an example of a third class lever with the load force at the brush end and the fulcrum at the handle end. You apply the force to the broom somewhere in between the two ends depending on how you are holding it.
