Is it true or false that in some machines the output force is greater than the input force?

Output force CAN'T be absolutely greater than input force because energy is lost due to friction.
However, the "mechanical advantage" of a simple machine can be greater than one because the machine applies the force over a different distance.

The output force of a rake is greater than the input force?
Yes, the output force of a rake is greater than the input force.
Is a machines mechanical advantage the output force multiplied by the input force?
it is
True or False Finding the ratio of input force to output force gives you the mechanical advantage of a machine?
it is false
How do machines increase output force?
by moving the object thru a smaller distance.
In a hydraulic lift system the output force is greater than the input force because?
A
Is output force greater than the input force in some machines?
yes
The output force of a rake is greater than the input force?
Yes, the output force of a rake is greater than the input force.
If a machine has a mechanical advantage much greater than 1 how will the output force be in comparison to the input force?
The Output Force Will Most Likely Be Greater Than The Input Force. So "OUTPUT" Is Greater Than "INPUT".
Is a machines mechanical advantage the output force multiplied by the input force?
it is
True or False Finding the ratio of input force to output force gives you the mechanical advantage of a machine?
it is false
Why do machines the less force to do the same amount of work?
Because machines allow force to be applied over a greater distance.
How do machines increase output force?
by moving the object thru a smaller distance.
In a hydraulic lift system the output force is greater than the input force because?
A
When is the mechanical advantage greater than one?
The IMA of a machine is greater than 1 whenever the output force is greater than the input force.
If the output force is less than the input force of a simple machine the mechanical advantage is less than one.?

Machines let you use less force over a greater?

A pulley system always causes the direction of the output force to be the opposite of the input force true or false?
False, Unless it is a twisted pulley system.
