Friction is the force that prevents all machines from being 100 percent efficient. It produces a resisting force that hinders the machine's complete functioning. Reducing friction will enhance efficiency.

What prevents the output work from never being greater than the input work?
That would be resistance. Oftentimes referred to as friction.
Why is electrostatic spray gun more efficient than ordinary spray gun?
The electrostatic spray gun is more efficient than an ordinary spray gun because more of the paint gets on to the object being painted. The droplets being charged makes them become attracted to what is being painted, rather than spraying all around.
Are power showers energy efficient?
Power showers are more energy efficient in most cases. In a power shower, only a pump is used to pump hot water from a boiler to the shower head as opposed to an electric shower, which has to heat up the water first before being used. Electric showers therefore are not as energy efficient as power showers.
Is there such thing as time machines?
Yes but rules will probably be put in place so that you may not change certain things. Also one is being developed right now!
What is an example of an insulator and why?
the handle on a pot is an insulator that prevents you from being burned. this is a thermal insulator.
What force stops machines from being 100 percent efficient?
Any mechanical action will waste energy as heat, therefore the work output is always less than the enegry input.
Why are supermarkets allowed to replace people with machines?
People are being replaced by machines because machines are faster, more efficient, and most importantly they do not fatigue or have to be payed (except for when they are bought) , the supermarkets and factories realize this so the boards of the companies allow it.
Which are the best quality and most affordable washing machines?
There are many types of washing machines being sold around the world. The Samsung j1043 is a great machine and is efficient and is fairly priced at under 1000 US dollars.
How do machines make your lives easier?
machines make life easier by being more efficient than us humans. we have so much on our minds and easily get distracted but machines are machines, so they work at a steady constant rate. if this answer didnt help you (sorry!) , but you can reword your question and im sure a better answer will come up! :)

What prevents food and liquid from being inhaled when a person swallows?
The Epiglottis is what prevents food and liquids from being inhaled.
What does being efficient mean?
To be efficient means to be quick and effective at a job or task.
What prevents card bus card from being inserted in PC card slot?
A bumby strip on the edge of the CardBus prevents it from being inserted into the slot.
When a person is being productive with little waste what are they being?
Efficient
Why does friction stops machines from not being 100 percent efficient?
Because friction causes a dissipation of heat energy and other kinetic energy. If you use the equation f = ma (Newton's law), where f= force, m= mass; a= acceleration, you can apply this to any machine and factor friction into the mass x acceleration equation. it will always decrease hypothetical force when applied with friction.
Is a peristaltic pump energy efficient?
There are a step in the right direction to being energy efficient. Although some adjustments are still being made.
What is the difference between sufficient and efficient?
Efficient: being effective without wasting time or effort or expense; "an efficient production manager"; "efficient engines save gas" Sufficient:of a quantity that can fulfill a need or requirement but without being abundant; "sufficient food"
