An effort of 4.8newtons is applied in moving a lord to a distance of 0.35metres .if the effort moves a distance of 1.6metres in raising a load of 1.0 newtons determine the efficiency of the machine?

To determine the efficiency of the machine, we need to use the formula:
Efficiency = (Output work / Input work) * 100%
The output work is the work done by the machine, which is equal to the product of the load and the distance it is moved:
Output work = Load * Distance
In this case, the load is 1.0 newtons and the distance is 1.6 meters, so the output work is:
Output work = 1.0 N * 1.6 m = 1.6 Nm
The input work is the work done by the effort, which is equal to the product of the effort and the distance it is moved:
Input work = Effort * Distance
In this case, the effort is 4.8 newtons and the distance is 0.35 meters, so the input work is:
