Energy is lost through heat transfer. In example: If two parts, lets say gears, move against eachother, they create friction, that friction creates heat.

Cars are estimated to loose somewhere around 70% of their energy I believe. This is because engines produce alot of energy which is lost through heat. Ever notice how hot an engine gets?

Reduce the friction on moving parts can greatly reduce energy loss. Ever notice how much easier to rollerblade with lubed bearings vs old bearings that need lube?

In what way is a machine subject to the law of energy conservation?

The law of conservation of energy was never found to be violated. The relevance for a machine is that a machine can not produce more energy than is put into the machine.


How a machine transforms energy into waste energy?

A machine transforms energy into waste energy through the process of converting the energy into different forms, such as heat, sound, or vibration, that are not useful for the machine's intended purpose. This waste energy is typically released into the environment as a byproduct of the machine's operation, leading to inefficiencies in the energy conversion process.


What is the work input for a machine?

The work input for a machine is the amount of energy or force that is put into the machine in order to make it operate. It is the energy that is required to do work on the machine and make it perform its intended function.


What form of energy is washing machine?

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

To calculate a machine's efficiency, you need to know the input energy (total energy put into the machine) and the output energy (useful energy the machine produces). Efficiency is usually calculated as the output energy divided by the input energy, multiplied by 100 to get a percentage.
