Weight is greater than effort that is reversible.

AKSHAY KALE said:   8 years ago
Less than 50% is irreversible.

Greater than 50% is reversible.

Thanks for explaining the concept.

Mechanical Efficiency MA=load Lifted/Effort.

1000/80 =12.5,
Velocity ratio =20,

MA=VR 12.5 /20 *100 =62.5 %.
So it's Reversible, because >50 % is Reversible, <50% Irreversible i.e Self-locking, used in screw jack.
100% ideal machine.

Efficiency = 50%.

Less than 50% is Irreversible.
More than 50% is reversible.
Equal to 100% is ideal.

Nice. Thank you all.

Less than 50% is irreversible.

Greater than 50% is reversible.

Machine gives 100% efficiency is called machine is ideal.

Total input = total output.
It's only imaginary machine.
