Work input is how much work you put into a machine and work output is the work done by the machine according to how much work you put into it. You will never get more work out of a machine than you put into it. The efficiency of a machine is how much useful work you got out of the machine compared to how much you put in (expressed in a percent).
Efficiency = Useful Work Output ÷ Work Input
As energy cant be converted without loosing some portion of it (thermodynamics), comparison between output and input work is used. When no energy is lost it is said to be efficient. In summary the input energy should be equal to the output energy/ work done.
Mechanical Efficiency
the comparison of a machine's output work toit's
No. That ratio is 'efficiency'.
The ratio between the two is called the efficiency.
Output is always greater than input. The output is multiplied from input.

force output x distance = work output ~same for input
There are always losses in the system . Friction causing heat. Vibration taking away energy . There are no prefect systems therefore there will always be losses.
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.
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.
