Given data:

The area of the hydraulic press is,

A_1=3.2in^2

The applied force is,

F_1=2\text{ lb}

The pressing force on the large piston is

F_2=795\text{ lb}

Given hydraulic press works on Pascal's law principle.

From the Pascal's law, the equation can be given as,

\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

Here,

A_2

is the area of the larger piston.

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get:

\begin{gathered} \frac{2\text{ lb}}{3.2in^2}=\frac{795\text{ lb}}{A_2} \\ A_2=1272in^2 \end{gathered}

Thus, the area of the large piston is

1272in^2

Answer:

24 hours

7\times 10^{-5}\ rad/s

Explanation:

If a satellite is in sync with Earth then the period of each satellite is 24 hours.

T=24\times 60\times 60\ s

Angular velocity is given by

\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{24\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow \omega=7\times 10^{-5}\ rad/s

The angular velocity of the satellite is 7\times 10^{-5}\ rad/s

A gas bottle contains 0.250 mol of gas at 730 mm hg pressure. if the final pressure is 1.15 atm, how many moles of gas were adde
Ludmilka [50]

Answer: 0.049 mol



Explanation:



1) Data:


n₁ = 0.250 mol

p₁ = 730 mmHg

p₂ = 1.15 atm

n₂ - n₁ = ?


2) Assumptions:


i) ideal gas equation: pV = nRT


ii) V and T constants.


3) Solution:


i) Since the temperature and the volume must be assumed constant, you can simplify the ideal gas equation into:


pV = nRT ⇒ p/n = RT/V ⇒ p/n = constant.


ii) Then p₁ / n₁ = p₂ / n₂


⇒ n₂ = p₂ n₁ / p₁


iii) n₂ = 1.15atm × 760 mmHg/atm × 0.250 mol / 730mmHg = 0.299 mol


iv) n₂ - n₁ = 0.299 mol - 0.250 mol = 0.049 mol

Giving quadrilateral a(2,-1 ) b ( 1,3) c(6,5) d(7,1) you want to prove that it is a parallelogram by showing opposite sides are
solong [7]

Answer:

Opposite sides are congruent (AB = DC).

Opposite angels are congruent (D = B).

Consecutive angles are supplementary (A + D = 180°).

If one angle is right, then all angles are right.

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

Each diagonal of a parallelogram separates it into two congruent triangles.
