Explain how machines can be useful if the output is always less than the input work

Physics
1 answer:
Anni [7]3 years ago
6 0

Because: Some of the work done by the machine is used to overcome the friction created by the use of the machine. ... Work output can never be greater than work input. Machines allow force to be applied over a greater distance, which means that less force will be needed for the same amount of work.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

232 J/K

Explanation:

The amount of heat gained by the air = the amount of heat lost by the tea.

q_air = -q_tea

q = -mCΔT

q = -(0.250 kg) (4184 J/kg/ºC) (20.0ºC − 85.0ºC)

q = 68,000 J

The change in entropy is:

dS = dQ/T

Since the room temperature is constant (isothermal):

ΔS = ΔQ/T

Plug in values (remember to use absolute temperature):

ΔS = (68,000 J) / (293 K)

ΔS = 232 J/K

In the Daytona 500 auto race, a Ford Thunderbird and a Mercedes Benz are moving side by side down a straightaway at 78.5 m/s. Th
Andrews [41]

Answer:

FT is 1020.6 meters (1640.6 meters - 620 meters) far from MB

Explanation:

First you have to consider that the Ford Thunderbird (FT) follows a rectilinear motion with varying acceleration, while Mercedez Benz (MB) has a constant velocity (no acceleration). So if you finde the time spent by FT in each section, and the distance, then you will find the distance for MB.

1) Vf² = Vi² + 2ad, where Vf: final velocity, Vi: ionitial velocity, a: acceleration and d: distance.

For the first portion  (0 m/s)² = (78.5 m/s)² + 2a(250 m) ⇒

-(78.5 m/s)² / 2(250m) = a ⇒ a = -12.3 m/s².

Now, you can find the corresponding time for this section with the following formule: Vf = Vi + at ⇒ 0 m/s = 78.5 m/s + (-12.3 m/s²) t

⇒ t= (-78.5 m/s)/ (-12.3 m/s²) ⇒ t= 6.4 seconds.

2) Then FT spent 5 seconds in the pit.

3) The the FT accelerates until reach 78.5 m/s again in a distance of 370 m.

Vf² = Vi² + 2ad ⇒ (78.5 m/s)² = (0 m/s)² + 2a(370 m)

⇒ (78.5 m/s)²/ 2(370 m) = a ⇒ a = 8.3 m/s²

Then, Vf = Vi + at ⇒ 78.5 m/s = 0 m/2 + (8.3 m/s²) t

⇒ (78.5 m/s)/(8.3 m/s²) = t ⇒ t = 9.5 seconds.

4) Summarizing, the FT moves 620 meters (250 + 370 mts) in 20.9 seconds ( 6.4 s + 5 s + 9.5 s).

5) During this time, MB moves

Velocity = distance/ time ⇒ Velocity x time = Distance

⇒ Distance = (78.5 m/s) x  (20.9 seconds) ⇒ Distance = 1640.6 meters

6) Finally, the FT is 1020.6 meters (1640.6 meters - 620 meters) far from MB
