The mechanical advantage of something is related to the power input (fuel) and the power output (work) that the machine is given/gives out (respectively)
I'm not entirely sure what means what (i.e. a mechanical advantage of over 1 or 3 or whatever = efficient, and such)
Hope I helped. If you need to, I think the last place I saw a lesson on this was in a Holt physical science book, if you wanted to search for that lesson online or something.

How do you calculate the mechanical advantage of a machine?
Mechanical advantage is calculated by dividing the output force of a machine by the input force required to operate it. The formula is MA = Output Force / Input Force. Mechanical advantage gives you an indication of how much a machine amplifies or reduces the input force.
The mechanical advantage of a machine without friciton is called the machine's mechanical advantage?

The mechanical what of a machine compares the input force with the output force?
The mechanical advantage of a machine compares the input force applied to the machine with the output force produced by the machine. It is calculated as the ratio of the output force to the input force and indicates how much a machine amplifies or reduces the input force.
What describes the relationship between friction and IMA for a simple machine?
Friction reduces the mechanical advantage (IMA) of a simple machine by causing energy losses in the form of heat. As friction increases, the effectiveness of the machine in transmitting force or lift decreases, ultimately lowering the mechanical advantage.
What is the mechanical advantage of a machine which multiplies distance?
The mechanical advantage of the machine is"if you give small accelration , it will increase the speed of the engine... It is possible by mechanical
What is true about the mechanical advantage of a machine?
it is less than the ideal mechanical advantage
What is the mechanical advantage of 775?
775 is a number, not a machine. It, therefore, has no mechanical advantage.
What does the output force divided by the input force equal?
Efficiency of a machine or mechanical advantage
Why is the actual mechanical advantage of a machine different for a machines ideal mechanical advantage?
The actual mechanical advantage of a machine is usually less than its ideal mechanical advantage due to factors like friction, energy loss, and imperfections within the machine. These losses reduce the efficiency of the machine in transferring input force to the output force. Ideal mechanical advantage is based on the design and geometry of the machine, while actual mechanical advantage accounts for real-world limitations and performance.
How does friction change a machines mechanical advantage?
Friction reduces the efficiency of a machine by converting some mechanical energy into heat. This means that the output force of a machine can be lower than expected due to frictional losses, which can reduce its mechanical advantage. In other words, friction can make it more difficult for a machine to perform work by increasing the force needed to overcome resistance.
What do you call the output force to the input force?
The ratio of the output force to the input force is called mechanical advantage. It indicates how much a machine amplifies or reduces the input force to produce the desired output force.
What does a simple machine give a mechanical advantage of?
It reduces weight of other things known as the load. Also can increase energy output, IE; a push bike with gears.
