### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Draw the Diagram of Fire Tongs:** - Start by sketching the fire tongs. The tongs consist of two arms that pivot at a fulcrum. - Mark the fulcrum (F) at the point where the two arms meet. - Identify the point where the load (L) is applied, which is typically at the end of one arm where the object is held. - Mark the point where the effort (E) is applied, which is at the end of the other arm where the user applies force to operate the tongs. ...
