In an ideal universe, where there are no friction or heat transfer losses, work out = work in.
In our universe, however, work output is always less than input. How much less depends on the efficiency of the machine's design.
Output(input), or O(i)
Input work is the work done on a machine, while output work is the work done by the machine. Efficiency of a simple machine is calculated as the ratio of output work to input work. The efficiency of a simple machine is high when the output work is close to the input work, indicating that the machine is converting most of the input work into useful output work.
If the input work equals the output work, the machine has 100% efficiency, meaning it is able to convert all the input work into useful output work without any losses. An efficient machine is desirable as it maximizes the output for a given input.
Work Output is the work done BY a machine. Work Input is the work done ON a machine.
Work Output is the work done BY a machine. Work Input is the work done ON a machine.
mechanical efficiency
If the input work is processed by a machine and no output work is produced, the machine is considered to have zero efficiency. This means that the machine is not effectively converting input work into useful output work.
Output is always greater than input. The output is multiplied from input.
Work input is work done on a machine to get the desired output. Work output is the amount of desired work that is done by a machine.
Input work refers to the work done on a machine, which is calculated as the input force multiplied by the input distance. Output work is the work produced by the machine, which is calculated as the output force multiplied by the output distance. The efficiency of a machine is determined by comparing the output work to the input work, with ideal machines having an efficiency of 100%.
If a machine has 100 percent efficiency, the output work = the input work. That's actually basically what the efficiency of a machine is - output work / input work * 100.
Work Input- The work done on a machine as the input force acts through the input distance. Work Output - The work done by a machine as the output force acts through the output distance (What the machine does to the object (dependent on the force) to increase the output distance).
