ANSWER: no, it is called the efficiency.
When the output is less than the input. Mechanical advantage is expressed as the ratio of the output to the input.
Efficiency of a machine or mechanical advantage
Mechanical Advantage = distance moved at input / distance moved at output
Mechanical Advantage
The mechanical advantage is less than 1 when the output is less than the input. Mechanical advantage is expressed as the ratio of the output to the input. You can move an object far faster than your source of power is capable of working. Such as in the final gears in your car, where the wheels are turning faster than the engine is.
When the output is less than the input. Mechanical advantage is expressed as the ratio of the output to the input.
Efficiency of a machine or mechanical advantage
mechanical advantage= output force over input force
The equation for ideal mechanical advantage is: Output force/input force, Or input distance/ output distance.
Mechanical advantage the resistance force. Mechanical advantage is equal output force divided by input force.
Mechanical Advantage which is the output force divided by the input force.
Mechanical Advantage = distance moved at input / distance moved at output

the equation of mechanical advantage isFout (force, output)divided byFin (force input)the equation for Ideal mechanical advantage isDin (distance, input)divided byDout (distance, output)hope this helps a bit
Sounds like you are asking about "mechanical advantage"...
