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.

Answer: final Velocity v = 10.2m/s

Explanation:

Final speed v(t) is given as

v(t) = u + at .......1

Where; u = the initial speed

a = acceleration

t = time taken

The total distance travelled d is given as

d = ut + 1/2(at^2)

Given

d = 5.0m

u = 2.0m

a = g = 10m/s2 (acceleration due to gravity)

Substituting into the equation above we have

5 = 2t + 5t^2

5t^2 +2t -5 = 0

Applying the quadratic formula. We have;

t = 0.82s & t = -1.22s

t cannot be negative

t = 0.82s

From equation 1 above

v = 2.0m/s + 10(0.82)m/s

v = 10.2m/s

How do you identify short and long term comets
erica [24]
A second important difference between comets coming from the Kuiper Belt and from the Oort cloud is represented by their different characteristic periods.
In fact, short period comets are thought to generate in the Kuiper belt and have rather predictable orbits with short periods (up to 200 years). There are two major families of short period comets: the Jupiter family with periods of less than 20 years and the Halley family with periods form 20 to 200 years. That's short

You kick a ball with a speed of 14 m/s at an angle of 51°. How far away does the ball land?
In-s [12.5K]
-- The vertical component of the ball's velocity is 14 sin(<span>51°) = 10.88 m/s

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².

-- The ball rises for 10.88/9.8 seconds, then stops rising, and drops for the
same amount of time before it hits the ground.

-- Altogether, the ball is in the air for (2 x 10.88)/(9.8) = 2.22 seconds
==================================

-- The horizontal component of the ball's velocity is  14 cos(</span><span>51°) = 8.81 m/s

-- At this speed, it covers a horizontal distance of (8.81) x (2.22) = <em><u>19.56 meters</u></em>
before it hits the ground.


As usual when we're discussing this stuff, we completely ignore air resistance.
