Answer:

Efficiency = 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Work output = 240 N

Work Input = 300 N

To find the mechanical efficiency of a machine;


Efficiency = \frac {Out-put \; work}{In-put \; work} * 100

Substituting into the equation, we have;


Efficiency = \frac {240}{300} * 100


Efficiency = 0.8 * 100

Efficiency = 80%

Therefore, the mechanical efficiency of the machine is 80 percent.
