| mechanical advantage | quantity that measures how much a machine multiplies force or distance |
| compound machine | a machine made of more than one simple machine |
| potential energy | energy than an object has because of the position shape or condition of the object |
| kenetic energy | energy of a moving object due to the objects motion |
| mechanical energy | amount of work an object can do because of the objects kinetic and potential energies |
| efficiency | quantity usually expressed as a percentage that measure the ration of useful work output to work input |
