A particle is moving along a projectile path where the initial height is 160 feet with an initial speed of 144 feet per second.
Leviafan [203]
Assuming Earth's gravity, the formula for the flight of the particle is: 

<span>s(t) = -16t^2 + vt + s = -16t^2 + 144t + 160. </span>

<span>This has a maximum when t = -b/(2a) = -144/[2(-16)] = -144/(-32) = 9/2. </span>

<span>Therefore, the maximum height is s(9/2) = -16(9/2)^2 + 144(9/2) + 160 = 484 feet. </span>

The area of the piston to the master cylinder in a hydraulic braking system of a car is 0.6 square inches. If a force of 5.6 lb
balu736 [363]

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = F_1=5.6 lb

Area of the piston = A_1=0.6 inches^2

Force applied on the brakes = F_2

Area of the brakes = A_2=1.8 inches^2

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.
