Answer:
Source code means it’s written in any high level language. So to execute it the computer needs to compile or interpret it at first to convert it into machine level language which takes time as per the different compilers or interpreters.
But machine code means it’s already in machine level language so we can directly execute it using any compiler or interpreter.
As a result the execution time of the machine code is lesser than that of the source code.
