    A can opener makes work easier by increasing force.

    Explanation

    Technically a can opener is a simple lever that increases the force with which we remove the cap of the can. Levers are rod shaped objects with fulcrum at one end and the length of the lever has a positive impact on the force.

    considering the equation

    work=force*distance

    indicates that increasing the length of the lever/can opener increases the work done by it.
