Question

It is easier to open the lid of a can using a spoon why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

It depends on how you use the spoon...

if you are keeping one end of the spoon and pressing other end, the force you provide is supported by the force due to gravity... Hence it is easy to open this way :)

F + G ... Where F is the force you provide and G is the force due to gravity.

Answer 2

Answer:

the spoon is longer making the vector large hence the torque is increased making it easy to open the lid
