100% efficiency would mean that the machine is able to transform energy from one form into another without any loss of energy from the system in the process. For it to have greater than 100% efficiency, it would have to somehow generate additional energy, not contained in the system, in the process, and this is not possible.

Why is a machine always less than 100 percent efficient?

Machines are never 100% efficient due to factors such as friction, heat loss, and mechanical limitations. Some amount of energy will always be lost during the transfer or transformation process, making it impossible for a machine to achieve perfect efficiency.


Is 45 percent efficient a qualitative assessment or quantitative assessment?

A quantitative assessment involves numbers. This says 45% so it is quantitative. Qualitative would involve a description: fairly efficient, very efficient or more efficient than before.

What kind what prevents a machine to be 100 percent efficient?

Friction between moving parts, energy losses due to heat, and limitations in material strength are factors that prevent a machine from being 100% efficient. These inefficiencies result in some of the input energy being wasted rather than being fully converted into useful work.

How does the input force compare to the output force when using a simple machine?

The input force is proportionally smaller than the output force. If you put more force into the machine than you get out, that makes the job harder. That defeats the purpose of using the machine at all.


Can a machine have 110 percent efficiency?

Nothing can be more that 100% (one hundred percent)! When people say that something is one hundred and ten percent - they are wrong. It is an attempt to imply that something is greater that it should be. It is similar to the annoying habit of adding !!!! at the end of a sentence, when a single ! is correct.
