Some of input energy is wasted in heating up the molecules, sound,etc therefore the resultent output work is always less than the input force due to loss of energy.

What is the difference between the input force and output force?

The difference between and input force and an output force is that an output force is force exerted by a machine, and an input force is force exerted on a machine.


Where is the output and input force on a wheel and axle?

Input force is the force you put in to a machine. Output force is a force exerted by a machine.


What is the input force and output force of a wheel and axle?

Input force is the force you put in to a machine. Output force is a force exerted by a machine. You exert input force on the wheel and when the axle rotates it exert large output force.


What are input and output forces?

An input force is what force you act upon a machine. The output is what it does for you in return.


What is meant by the input force and output force of a machine?

the input force is how much energy or force you put into the machine, the output force is how much energy the machine produces with the end product.


A machine with a 5-n input force and a 25-n output force has a mechanical advantage of?

Just divide the output force by the input force.Just divide the output force by the input force.Just divide the output force by the input force.Just divide the output force by the input force.


What force is exerted on a machine?

output force


What is the describing of effect of the machine on output force?

The ratio of output force to input force for a machine is called its mechanical advantage.


What in an output force?

In a closed system in the "real world" in which we live, there are losses associated with friction and other actions. These forces "take energy" from the system between its input and output. When we apply force to the imput of a system, some is lost as the force is transferred through that system. That means that the output force we observe will always be a bit less than the input force. A transmission in a vehicle is a classic example of the idea that there are losses between the input and the output of a system. The input from the engine will always be a bit greater than the output at the tailshaft (or axles for a transaxle) due to losses within the transmission.


What is the advantages of a simple machine?

output force divide by the input force is the mechanical advantage of a simple machine.The output force is the force that is exerted by the machine on an object, and the input force is the force that we exert on a machine.


Force output divided by force input is the what of the machine?

That's the machine's "Mechanical Advantage".
