What is the formula for calculating mechanical power​

Physics
1 answer:
Oksi-84 [34.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Because work can be defined as force time distance, we can also use the following equation

Solution

P=power (w or ft-lbf/s)

F=force (N or lbf)

D=distance (m or ft)

T=time (sec)

One horsepower is equivalent to 550 ft-lbf/s and 745.7 watts.

A system does 506 kj of work, and loses 266 kj of heat to the surroundings. what is the change in internal energy of the system?
babunello [35]

Answer:

The change in internal energy of the system = -772kJ

Explanation:

Given :

Heat lost by the system , a = -266KJ

Workdone by the system, W = -506KJ

The first law of thermodynamics states that:

Change in internal energy = q + w

Substituting values into the equation

Change in internal energy = (-266KJ) + (-506KJ)

Change in internal energy = -722KJ

A ball rolls off the edge of a horizontal roof at 10 m/s. 2 seconds later, the speed of the ball will be? a. 10 m/s b. 19.6m/s c
disa [49]
The ball rolls horizontally thus it is not affected by the gravitational acceleration. We assume that velocity is constant since we are not given acceleration. Therefore, acceleration is zero. The speed of the ball after 2 seconds will still be the same given we have a constant velocity system. Option A is the answer.

You are pushing a box up a ramp with 70 N of force. If the ramp is made steeper and shorter, what needs to happen to the box for
Elenna [48]

Answer:

A larger force than 70 N will be required for the box to continue moving

Explanation:

A ramp is an inclined plane surface that is tilted to form a slope on its opposite sides

A ramp provides mechanical advantage or force amplification, by allowing less force to lift heavier load from having to move through a longer distance to reach a particular elevation when the slope of the ramp is gentle

Therefore, when the slope is steeper, and shorter, more force than 70 N will be required for the box to continue moving.
