1. A hydraulic lift is to be used to lift a truck masses 5000 kg. If the diameter of the
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

a)   F = 4.9 10⁴ N,  b)   F₁ = 122.5 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use that the pressure is transmitted throughout the entire fluid, being the same for the same height

1) pressure is defined by the relation

           P = F / A

to lift the weight of the truck the force of the piston must be equal to the weight of the truck

          ∑F = 0

          F-W = 0

          F = W = mg

          F = 5000 9.8

          F = 4.9 10⁴ N

the area of ​​the pisto is

          A = pi r²

          A = pi d² / 4

          A = pi 1 ^ 2/4

          A = 0.7854 m²

pressure is

          P = 4.9 104 / 0.7854

          P = 3.85 104 Pa

2) Let's find a point with the same height on the two pistons, the pressure is the same

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

where subscript 1 is for the small piston and subscript 2 is for the large piston

          F₁ = \frac{A_1}{A_2} \ F_2

the force applied must be equal to the weight of the truck

          F₁ = ( \frac{d_1}{d_2} )^2\  m g

          F₁ = (0.05 / 1) ² 5000 9.8

          F₁ = 122.5 N

Autorhythmic cells can generate action potentials spontaneously because they have Autorhythmic cells can generate action potenti
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

They can generate potentials spontaneously because they have Unstable Membrane Potentials.

Explanation:

Autorythmic cells or Pacemaker cells are cells that provide Action potentials (electrical impulses) that starts off the cardiac cycle.

N:B This action potential is created spontaneously.

To explain further, the heart originate in specialized cardiac muscle cells, called autorhythmic cells, that can excite themselves and therefore are able to generate an action potential without external stimulation by nerve cells. And this sets the cardiac cycle i

(Pumping of the heart) into motion. (The pace maker potential)

The Autorhythmic cells create an action potential spontaneously

And this is possible because they have an UNSTABLE RESTING POTENTIAL that is continuously depolarizing, while it drifts slowly toward threshold. As Na+ ions enter the cell, the inner surface of the plasma membrane becomes less negative gradually, thus generating the pacemaker potential.

Which value is most likely to be the pH of a salt that is formed by the reaction of a strong acid and a weak base?
Mice21 [21]
In a hydrolysis reaction between a strong acid and a weak base, the salt formed will have a pH less than 7. By virtue of this phenomenon between <span>weak bases and strong acids</span>, the anion of the strong acid will fail to attract the hydrogen ion<span>, while the cation from the weak base will donate a </span>proton<span> to the water forming a hydronium ion</span><span>.

AfilCa [17]
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the second option. A screw is an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. <span>The efficiency of a screw is low because there is more input than output. In other words, it is because of friction. Hope this answer helps.</span>

3. An object of mass 90 kg travels down a slide.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

3) Ep = 13243.5[J]

4) v = 17.15 [m/s]

Explanation:

3) In order to solve this problem, we must use the principle of energy conservation. That is, the energy will be transformed from potential energy to kinetic energy. We can calculate the potential energy with the mass and height data, as shown below.

m = mass = 90 [kg]

h = elevation = 15 [m]

Potential energy is defined as the product of mass by gravity by height.

E_{p}=m*g*h\\E_{p}=90*9.81*15\\E_{p}=13243.5[J]

This energy will be transformed into kinetic energy.

Ek = 13243.5 [J]

4) The velocity can be determined by defining the kinetic energy, as shown below.

E_{k}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}  \\v = \sqrt{\frac{2*E_{k} }{m} }\\ v= \sqrt{\frac{2*13243.5 }{90} }\\v=17.15[m/s]
