MA = W/P = 1000/80 = 12.5.

Efficiency = 12.5/20*100 = 62.5%.

So its efficiency is above 50% so it is a reversible machine.

For an ideal machine MA = VR.

Pallavi said:   1 decade ago
What is MA and VR full form?

Tarak said:   1 decade ago
Mechanical advantage and velocity ratio.

Raj said:   10 years ago
When it will ideal and non reversible?

Akshay said:   10 years ago
Less than 50% is irreversible.

Greater than 50% is reversible.

Irreversible machine also known as self locking machine.

Giri said:   9 years ago
Ideal is equal to 50%.

Less than 50%is irreversible greater than 50% is reversible and equals to 100% is ideal.

Whereas ideal is equal 50%.
