Work output divided by Work input Times 100
The mechanical efficiency of this machine is 30 percent.
Efficiency is nothing but calculating how the machine is performing for what it has been made for, Efficiency is usually calculated in % as (output/input )X100. for Eg. the Thermal efficiency of an reciprocating gasoline engine can be calculated as follows, Let, the input for an reciprocating engine is 12MJ and its out put is 4MJ then Efficiency is (4/12)X100 = 33%
The reason why amachine cant be one hundred percent effective is as a result of losses.For Electrical machine such as alternator we have Mechanical losses(such as windage and frictional losses)and Electrical losses(such as copper loss in the rotor winding and stator winding).In Mechanical machine the main losses are windage and frictional losses.NOTE;ALL THIS LOSSES RESULT IN THE PRODUCTION OF HEAT,THUS REDUCING THE EFFICIENCY OF THE MACHINE.
Mechanical pnematic machine
That's the "mechanical advantage" of the machine.
efficiency=mechanical advantage/velocity ratio mechanical advantage=load/effort use this formula, ans:100N
The mechanical efficiency of this machine is 30 percent.
mechanical efficiency is the percent of the energy that you put into a machine that was transferred to the load.

Mechanical efficiency
an ideal machine
Efficiency of a machine or mechanical advantage
mechanical efficiency is the percent of the energy that you put into a machine that was transferred to the load.
Friction is the reason that you can never have a 100% efficient machine. It is the reason that most machine have horrible efficiency.
mechanical advantage
how to calculate the vapour absorption mechine efficiency and per TR steam consumption
Mechanical Efficiency is the ratio of Actual mechanical advantage to ideal mechanical advantage.Efficiency will be maximum when Actual mechanical advantage equals that of ideal.But practically not possible.Actual mechanical advantage will be less due to friction,heat,deflection etc.avoiding these loses will increase the machine efficiency.
