A dentist's chair with a person in it weighs 1675 N. The output plunger of a hydraulic system starts to lift the chair when the

dental assistant's foot exerts a force of 39 N on the input piston. Neglecting any difference in the heights of the piston and the plunger, what is the ratio of the area of the plunger to the area of the piston

The ratio of the area of the plunger to the area of the piston will be 0.2323.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The force applied perpendicular to the surface of an item per unit area across which that force is spread is known as pressure.

It is denoted by P. The pressure relative to the ambient pressure is known as gauge pressure.

The presure at the output remains the same

\rm P_0=P_I \\\\\ \frac{F_0}{A_o} =\frac{F_I}{A_I} \\\\ \frac{A_0}{A_I} = \frac{F_0}{F_I} \\\\ \frac{A_0}{A_I} =\frac{39}{1675} \\\\ \frac{A_0}{A_I} =0.2323

Hence, the ratio of the area of the plunger to the area of the piston will be 0.2323.

Later research indicated that electric current is actually the flow of ____
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Electrons.

Explanation:

Electricity was discovered before the discovery of electrons by J.J Thompson in 1896. Before the electron, it was thought that it is the positive ions that move through the wire and carry current—that's why today the conventional current represents the flow of positive charges.

After J.J Thompson's discovery of the electrons, it was realized that it is the electrons that actually carry the current through the conductor. But changing the direction of the conventional current didn't seem appropriate, and that's why the convention continues to be used to this day—reminding us that once it were the positive ions that were thought to carry the current.

Does magnets exert a force. explain​
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Magnets exert forces and torques on each other due to the rules of electromagnetism. The forces of attraction field of magnets are due to microscopic currents of electrically charged electrons orbiting nuclei and the intrinsic magnetism of fundamental particles (such as electrons) that make up the material. Hope this helps you! :)
