A. Physical I/O sensors
Safety switches, operator inputs, travel limit switches etc
Answer:
Change in entropy S = 0.061
Second law of thermodynamics is satisfied since there is an increase in entropy
Explanation:
Heat Q = 300 kW
T2 = 24°C = 297 K
T1 = 7°C = 280 K
Change in entropy =
S = Q(1/T1 - 1/T2)
= 300(1/280 - 1/297) = 0.061
There is a positive increase in entropy so the second law is satisfied.
The power that must be supplied to the motor is 136 hp
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given-
weight of the elevator, m = 1000 lb
Force on the table, F = 500 lb
Distance, s = 27 ft
Efficiency, ε = 0.65
Power = ?
According to the equation of motion:
F = ma

a = 16.1 ft/s²
We know,

To calculate the output power:
Pout = F. v
Pout = 3 (500) * 29.48
Pout = 44220 lb.ft/s
As efficiency is given and output power is known, we can calculate the input power.
ε = Pout / Pin
0.65 = 44220 / Pin
Pin = 68030.8 lb.ft/s
Pin = 68030.8 / 500 hp
= 136 hp
Therefore, the power that must be supplied to the motor is 136 hp
