The force exerted by a machine
Real World Example
Imagine you're trying to push a heavy sofa across the living room floor. This situation is similar to how a machine exerts an output force, as both involve an effort to move something with greater ease. Just as you might use a rug or sliders to make moving the sofa easier, a machine uses mechanisms to amplify your input force, so the output force is greater, allowing the machine to do the heavy lifting just like the rug helps you move the sofa with less effort.
