Answer:

The cross-sectional area of the larger piston is 392cm ^{2}[/tex]

Explanation:

To find the solution, we apply the following equation:

Pascal's principle: F=P*A   Formula (1)

F=Force applied to the piston

P: Pressure

A= Area of the piston

Nomenclature:

Fp= Force on the primary piston= 500N

W= weight of the car =m*g=2000kg*9.8m/s2= 19600N

Fs= Force on the secondary piston= W = 19600N

Ap= Primary piston area=10cm^{2} =10*10^{-4}m^{2}

As= Area of the secondary piston=?

Pressure applied on one side is distributed to all liquid molecules since liquids are incompressible.

From equation (1)

P=F/A

Pp=Ps

\frac{Fp}{Ap} = \frac{Fs}{As}

As= \frac{Fs*Ap}{Fp}

As=\frac{19600*10*10^{-4} }{500}

As=0.0392m^{2} =0.0392*10^{4}cm^{2}

As=392cm ^{2}

If the position of an object is zero at one instant, what is true about the velocity of that object?
ValentinkaMS [1138]
If the position of an object is zero at a particular moment, this does not provide any indication about its velocity. It might simply be moving through that point, and you observed it exactly when it was at zero.

An air hockey game has a puck of mass 30 grams and a diameter of 100 mm. The air film under the puck is 0.1 mm thick. Calculate
inna [974]

Answer:

the time it takes after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

Explanation:

initially given information

mass = 30 g = 0.03 kg

diameter = 100 mm = 0.1 m

thickness = 0.1 mm = 1 ×10^{-4} m

dynamic viscosity = 1.75 ×10^{-5} Ns/m²

temperature of air = 15°C

to determine

time needed for the puck to reduce its speed by 10%

solution

we note that velocity changes from 0 to v

assuming initial velocity = v

therefore final velocity = 0.9v

implying a change in velocity is du = v

and clearance dy = h

shear stress acting on the surface is expressed as

= µ \frac{du}{dy}

therefore

= µ \frac{v}{h}............1

substituting the values

= 1.75 ×10^{-5} × \frac{v}{10^{-4}}

= 0.175 v

the area between the air and puck is given by

Area = \frac{\pi }{4} d^{2}

area = \frac{\pi }{4} 0.1^{2}

area = 7.85 × \frac{v}{10^{-3}} m²

thus, the force on the puck can be represented as

Force = × area

force = 0.175 v × 7.85 × 10^{-3}

force = 1.374 × 10^{-3} v

now applying Newton's second law

force = mass × acceleration

- force = mass \frac{dv}{dt}

- 1.374 × 10^{-3} v = 0.03 \frac{0.9v - v }{t}

solving for t = \frac{0.1 v * 0.03}{1.37*10^{-3} v}

the time needed after impact for the puck is 2.18 seconds

A mouse runs along a baseboard in your house. The mouse's position as a function of time is given by x(t)=pt2+qt, with p = 0.36
ValentinkaMS [1138]

Response:

0.60 m/s

Details:

The average speed between times t = a and t = b can be expressed as:

v_avg = (x(b) − x(a)) / (b − a)

Given the function x(t) = 0.36t² − 1.20t, and considering the interval from 1.0 to 4.0:

v_avg = (x(4.0) − x(1.0)) / (4.0 − 1.0)

v_avg = [(0.36(4.0)² − 1.20(4.0)) − (0.36(1.0)² − 1.20(1.0))] / 3.0

v_avg = [(5.76 − 4.8) − (0.36 − 1.20)] / 3.0

v_avg = [0.96 − (-0.84)] / 3.0

v_avg = 0.60

The average speed calculated is 0.60 m/s.

A kangaroo jumps to a vertical height of 2.8 m. How long was it in the air before returning to earth
serg [1189]
The kangaroo reaches a maximum vertical altitude of 2.8 m, which can be calculated using the formula 2.8 = 1/2 * 9.8 * t^2. Thus, applying the equation s = ut + 1/2at^2.
