Efficiency is a measure of how good a device is at changing energy from one form to another. Efficiency can be calculated using the formula: SciDoc Stretch: A car uses a total of 2,000 J of chemical energy and turns it into 1,500 J of useful kinetic energy. What is its efficiency? Efficiency = Useful energy out x 100% Total energy in Note: You can also see this equation as Efficiency = Useful power out x 100% Total power in I do We do Test I do We do You do LO:
