one way to reduce friction between two surfaces is to add oil. oil fills in the gaps between surfaces , and keeps many of the high spots from making contact. because there are fewer contact points between the surfaces, the force of friction is reduced. more of the input work then is converted to output work by the machine.
It would be friction.<3 hope this helped
frictionIn real machines, as opposed to ideal machines, there is always friction that reduces the efficiency of the machine. Lubricants like oil can be used to reduce friction and improve efficiency.
Yes, friction can reduce the efficiency of machines because it produces heat which leads to energy loss. This heat energy is not useful for the intended purpose of the machine, resulting in a decrease in overall efficiency. Minimizing friction through lubrication or using smoother materials can help improve efficiency.
It reduces friction between surfaces - and stops components from heating up too quickly.
Friction.
Friction is one factor that prevents a machine from operating at 100 percent efficiency. Some energy is lost as heat due to friction between moving parts, which reduces the overall efficiency of the machine.
Yes, exactly.
Mainly as heat (thermal).
Adding oil to the moving parts of machines can do that because it makes it smoother and takes the rust off of it.

Friction requires energy to overcome it. This causes loss of energy in the system. Loss of energy in a system, by definition, is a reduction of efficiency.
Friction is a common factor that reduces efficiency by converting some mechanical work into heat. When two surfaces rub against each other, energy is lost as heat due to friction, thereby reducing the overall efficiency of a system. Lubricants are often used to minimize this heat loss and improve efficiency.
