Is 100% efficiency physically possible? Or are they just trying to get as close as they can, knowing they can never truly reach 100%?

- wishinghand 6y agoAs long as there is friction, no.
- robotresearcher 6y agoNever 100%. Friction anywhere will prevent perfect efficiency. Also any compression, flexing or twisting of the components, which can be very, very small for hard steel at these low forces but not quite zero.
- yoz-y 6y agoWouldn’t a vélocipède be 100% efficient (in transferring motion of legs into motion of the wheel)?
