Efficiency % = (work out / work in) * 100
(Work = force * distance)
The efficiency of a machine is found by considering the useful energy or work that comes out of it, and dividing this by the work that you put into it. Multiply by 100 to get the answer in terms of percentage. You should never get more than 100% efficiency, or 100%, since energy will be lost (to heat caused by friction for example).
The decimal efficiency of each part multiplied together.
Because there is always going to be friction, the efficiency of any machine will always be less then 100 percent.
mechanical efficiency is the percent of the energy that you put into a machine that was transferred to the load.
A complex machine.
Efficiency % = (work out / work in) * 100 (Work = force * distance)
In that case, the efficiency is said to be 1 - or equivalently, 100%.
The mechanical advantage of a compound machine is the multiple of the separate mechanical advantages of each simple machine. The efficiency of the compound machine is also the multiple of the separate efficiencies of each simple machine. So the work in to the first machine multiplied by all of the simple machine efficiencies gives you the work out of the last machine
input
The answer is mechanical advantage, not efficiency!
Efficiency means to calculate that is the machine is efficient enough to save your bill or use less electricity. To calculate the formula is:Efficiency = Energy output (what is the machine producing) divided by Energy input (what is the machine taking or using).
A high efficiency machine will produce more of what is it that you want with the same power as the low efficiency one. In other words, for a low efficiency machine do as much as a high efficiency one, you have to give it more power (energy).
Although it is impossible for any machine to have an efficiency of 100%, it would in this case be 100%. Studies have shown that when ever there is motion, there has to be a loss of energy due to friction. So any rotating machine, big or small will have losses.

The efficiency of a machine is usually expressed as a percentage. The ideal efficiency of a machine is 100-percent.Another AnswerThere are no units of measurement for efficiency, because you are comparing like with like: output power divided by input power.
so wut exactly is ur question?
It is lower because compound machines have more moving parts that a simple machine does.
