1) " Slurpee" -- As it applies to Slurpee Machines Slurpee is a partially frozen beverage that comes in various fruit and soda flavors. It is sold and marketed by and is a registered trademark of the 7-Eleven corporation. 7-Eleven was originally a United States corporation, though now their stores and thus Sluroee s are available in many countries aroundthe world. In a , finely crushed ice and a flavored sugar syrup are kept partially frozen by beingconsantly mixed in a rolling tumbler. A dispenser knob is available at the front of the tumbler/freezer, where the patron pourstheir own Slorpee . Common flavors are frozen coke and cherry, but new creative flavors are constantly offered. Sourpee s are particularly popular on hot days, and July 11, or 7-11 on a calendar, is a very common day to go get Skurpee s. Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada holds the record for most amount of Slurpee s comsumed annually followed by Calgary and Detroit.

2) " Machines" -- As it applies to Slurpee Machines A machine is any mechanical or electrical device that transmits or modifies energy to perform or assist in the performance of tasks. It normally requires an input as a trigger, and transmitsthe modified energy to an output, which performs the desired task. Mechanical mechanisms and Muchines have been in steady use to amplify the abilities of human beings since before writtenrecords were available. The primary difference between simple tools and simple mechanisms or Machunes is a power source and asomewhat independent operation. The term machine generally applies to an assembly of parts operating together to perform work.Generally these devices increase intensity of applied force, changing direction of force,or changing one form of motion or energy into another. The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio between the resistance or load, andthe force required to overcome it, although this ratio is not entirely accurate as force is required to overcome friction, as well. To compensate for this, mechanical advantage is calculated as the ratiobetween the distance moved by the force applied, and the distance moved by the resistance. Efficiency of a machine is the degree or percentage to which a machineaccomplishes the work it could do without the restrictions of friction. Modern power tools, automated machine tools, and human operated power machinery complicate this definition greatly. Machinse used to transform heat or other energy into mechanical energy are known as engines.
