Helmholtz Free Energy

The Helmholtz free energy is a thermodynamic potential used to calculate the measure of useful work from a closed system. This system is kept at constant temperature and volume. German physicist Hermann Helmholtz introduced this concept in 1882.

Boxing gloves are padded to lessen the force of a blow. a. Calculate the force (in N) exerted by a boxing glove on an opponent's face, if the glove and face compress 6.50 cm during a blow in which the 6.00 kg arm and glove are brought to rest from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s b. Calculate the force (in N) exerted by an identical blow in the gory old days when no gloves were used and the knuckles and face would compress only 2.00 cm. (Assume the total mass of the arm remains 6.00 kg.) c. Discuss the magnitude of the force with glove on. Does it seem high enough to cause damage even though it is lower than the force with no glove?
At the end of a run Sam (116kg) crashes into a 85kg blood-rider who was running in the wrong direction (exactly opposite of Sam) on the track at 7.2 m/s. During the collision Sam exerts and average force of 3650N on the blood-rider. Sam was traveling 4.2 m/s as he slowed down after the run. a) how big is the average force the blood rider exerts against Sam during the collision? B) if this is the only horizontal force acting on each during the collision, what average horizontal acceleration does each experience during the collision? c) if the collision is perfectly ineleastic, how fast and in what direction will Sam and the blood rider be moving immediately after the collision?
Jane and Jake are looking at what happens to body 1 of mass m and body 2 of mass 2m, initially at rest, when equal forces are applied separately to the two bodies. Jake says that equal forces applied for equal times do equal amounts of work on the two bodies. Jane says that the two forces do equal amounts of work only if the two bodies move equal distances in the direction of the forces. Which one, if either, is correct? O Jake, because the speed of body 1 is half the speed of body 2, but m¡v1= m2V2- O Jane, because work does not depend on mass, only on force times distance. O Jake, because all bodies travel equal distances when equal forces are applied for equal times. O Jane, because it takes the same time for all bodies to travel equal distances when equal forces are involved. O Neither, because we can't compare the amounts of work done on bodies of different mass.

You are standing on a skateboard, initially at rest. A friend throws a very heavy ball towards you. You can either catch the object or deflect the object back towards your friend (such that it moves away from you with the same speed as it was originally thrown). What should you do in order to minimize your speed on the skateboard? O No answer text provided. O Catch the ball. Your final speed on the skateboard will be the same regardless whether you catch the ball or deflect the ball. O Deflect the ball.
