A seesaw is an example of a first-class lever. The fulcrum, which is the part of the lever that does not move, is in the middle. The resistance, which is the weight (person) you are trying to lift is at one end. The effort, which is the force applied to the lever, is the person sitting on the other end.

A seesaw is a long, narrow plank balanced in the middle on a fixed point, with a seat at each end for two people to sit on. When one person goes up, the other goes down, creating a back-and-forth motion. It is a commonly found on playgrounds.

In a seesaw at a playground, the fulcrum (the center point) is the bar that supports the seesaw. The seesaw itself is a lever. The kid sitting on the end is the load.
