If a simple machine was frictionless, the Ideal Mechanical Advantage (IMA) would be equal to the Actual Mechanical Advantage (AMA). This is because in the absence of friction, all the input work would be completely transferred to the output work without any energy losses due to friction. Therefore, IMA would be equal to AMA, resulting in a more efficient and effective machine.
