PLEASE HELP Which of the following describes the efficiency of real machines? 1.Efficiency is 100% 2.IMA is always larger than the AMA 3.IMA is always smaller than the AMA 4.IMA is equal to the AMA

IMA is always larger than the AMA

Explanation:

IMA is Ideal Mechanical Advantage and it equals the length of effort that is divided by the length of resistance which is given by the formula

IMA= Fr/Fe

Where Fr is the resistance force

Fe is the effort force.

IM= de/dr

Where de is the distance of the applied effort  

dr is the distance traveled by the load.

In any real machine, the effort is needed to overcome friction and because of this, the ideal mechanical advantage(IMA) is always larger than the actual mechanical advantage (AMA)

wind moving at higher speeds will transfer more energy to the water, resulting in stronger waves.
