What is measured by the power of a machine?

Power is the amount of work a specific machine can do over a period of time. Work is the product of force and the distance an object travels as a result of that force. A more powerful machine can effect changes in velocity of an object more rapidly than a less powerful machine.


What is the amount by which a machine multiplies an effort force is called?

How is the work output of a machine related to its work input?

Note: This answer addresses simple machines, such as levers, pulleys, and ramps - it does not address complex machines, such as engines..Machines affect work by applying one or more of the following principles:altering the amount of force applied in order to do the work;altering the amount of time over which the force is applied; and/oraltering the direction that the force is applied..A simple pulley, or a balanced lever, does not change the amount of force required to lift an object, or the time during which the force is applied, but they do change the direction of the force. A balanced lever (a teeter totter) makes it easier to lift another object (your friend on the other end of the teeter totter) because you can use your own weight to help lift that object (your friend). Such simple, balanced machines do not decrease the force, nor increase the amount of time during which the force is applied - they merely redirect the force, which is often helpful..Ramps, pulleys, and levers can also reduce the required force, in addition to changing the direction of the applied force, making the work easier in two ways. For example, a compound pulley reduces the amount of force required to lift a heavy object, but it now takes more time of that applied force to lift the weight. When this occurs, the machine does not actually change the amount of work done, but the machine makes it easier to do the same amount of work by spreading that work done over a longer period of time at a reduced force..Some machines use the opposite principle - they require more force than normal, but the force is applied over a reduced period of time. A catapult is an example of this principle - it is a lever in which more work is required to lift an object than without the catapult lever, but the object is lifted so quickly that, by the time the object is lifted, it is travelling fast enough to become a ballistic object.A machine affects work done by magnifying human's physical capabilities which reduces the intensity of the work.


Which term is defined as the force applied to a machine?

There is no force called effort force.All force are called force. You may heard Gravitational force, frictional force before because that is the name given by the scientist. So if you do not know what is the name(because sometimes there is none,just like your case on force provided by a machine) just simply call it a force.


In which direction should you apply a force if you want to do the greatest amount of work?

It depends on the kind of work you want done and whether you're using any simple machines. In case you aren't using any simple machines and you are applying force directly, it is best to apply force in the direction of motion desired.

When force is to the direction of motion no work is done?

No. Only if you are applying the same amount of force then there is no motion. If you are applying more force (the object is moving) then there is work being done.


What is the amount of force placed on a given material called?

The amount of force is called stress.


What are a hydraulic system's uses?

An hydraulic systems uses are to multiply the "effort force" or the force that person is applying to the simple machine


What is the amount of force given on a material?

What does the power of the machine tell you?

Force is the ratio of the amount of work the machine can do over the amount of time it takes to do the work.


How much acceleration is produced while applying a constant force without friction?

It depends on the amount of force force=distance*acceleration


Which type of machine machine changes the direction or amount of force needed to do work?

Simple


What is a simple machine and why do you use it?

A simple machine is a basic mechanical device used for applying a force, such as an inclined plane, wedge, or lever. They help us to do work as they amplify force or displacement.


If the machine cannot multiply the amount of work what is the advantage of using a machine?

A machine decreases the amount of force needed to work, as it distributes the force throughout a larger distance.

What does not reduce the amount of work that has to be done?

What is a compound machine machine?

A compound machine is a machine that is made up of more than one simple machine. They they change the amount of force and the direction.
