Work = Force x Distance. Force that doesn't result in movement does no work in the physics sense.

What information would you use to calculate the efficiency of a machine?

To calculate the efficiency of a machine, you would need information such as the input work or energy applied to the machine and the output work or energy generated by the machine. Efficiency is typically calculated by dividing the output work or energy by the input work or energy and multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage.


What do you need to know to calculate the efficiency of a machine?

To calculate the efficiency of a machine, you need to know the amount of useful work output produced by the machine and the amount of total energy input supplied to the machine. Efficiency is calculated by dividing the useful work output by the total energy input and multiplying by 100 to express it as a percentage.


If it took 5 seconds to lift the crate using a machine what was the power rating of the machine?

We have no way of knowing what power the machine was rated for, but with the information given in the question, we can calculate the power it delivered during the crate-lift: It was (1.96) x (mass of the crate in kilograms) x (distance the crate was lifted in meters) watts.


If you know the input distance and output distance of a machine which quantity can you calculate?

You can calculate the mechanical advantage of the machine.


What must you know in order to calculate a machine's efficiency?

The efficiency tells you how good the machine is. Efficiency equals the power output of the machine divided by the power that is input via a shaft, or via electrical wires, or via fuel. So if the machine has a low efficiency it wastes power and energy, which costs money. The average ordinary automobile has an efficiency of 20-25%. A lot of research work goes into improving that figure.

How do you calculate work output for a simple machine?

The resistance force multiplied by the resistance distance.


How do you calculate efficiency and how is it expressed?

For efficiency, you have to consider the energy or work that you get out of the machine, compared to the energy or work that you put into the machine. Its what you get out, divided by what you put in. By multiplying the result by 100, you should then get the efficiency expressed as a percentage, which is the normal way of describe how efficient a machine or process is. efficiency = (Work out/Work in) x 100 Sometimes you are given the efficiency in a problem, but then have to calculate either the work out or work in, so then its just a case of rearranging the equation above.

Formula to calculate work efficiency?

efficiency formula is (Wout/Win)*100% Wout is the work done by the machine is called the output work Win is the work done by you on a machine is called the input work efficiency= useful work output/work input For science, the effiency is: AMA/IMA * 100
