Question 4 of 5
Efficiency

The efficiency of a machine describes how much of the power put into the machine is turned into movement or force. A 100% efficient machine would turn all of the input power into output movement or force. However, no machine is 100% efficient due to friction, heat, wear and other imperfections that consume input power without delivering any output.

What is the power output of a 5 hp engine that's 95% efficient?
1306.3 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
0 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
2612.5 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
19 \( \frac{ft⋅lb}{s} \)
