It states that the total entropy of an isolated system can never decrease over time
Answer:
The mechanical advantage of the system is 8
Explanation:
the mechanical advantage measures how much the system multiplies the input force to get the output.
In the given:
The input force (effort) is 20 Newton
The output force (load) is 160 Newton
This means that the mechanical advantage is:
mechanical advantage = load / effort = 160 / 20 = 8
Note that the mechanical advantage is unit-less (has no unit) since it is a ratio between two forces.
Hope this helps :)
Power = work/time
Work = force * distance
(2000 N * 200 m) / 10 s = 40,000 Joules
Answer:
the average force 11226 N
Explanation:
Let's analyze the problem we are asked for the average force, during the crash, we can find this from the impulse-momentum equation, but this equation needs the speeds and times of the crash that we could look for by kinematics.
Let's start looking for the stack speeds, it has a free fall, from rest (Vo=0)
Vf² = Vo² - 2gY
Vf² = 0 - 2 9.8 7.69 = 150.7
Vf = 12.3 m / s
This is the speed that the battery likes when it touches the beam. They also give us the distance it travels before stopping, let's calculate the time
Vf = Vo - g t
0 = Vo - g t
t = Vo / g
t = 12.3 / 9.8
t = 1.26 s
This is the time to stop
Now let's use the equation that relates the impulse to the amount of movement
I = Δp
F t = pf-po
The amount of final movement is zero because the system stops
F = - po / t
F = - mv / t
F = - 1150 12.3 / 1.26
F = -11226 N
This is the average force exerted by the stack on the vean
