Two technicians are discussing hydraulics. Technician A says that if pistons of the same size are used, motion and force can be

increased or decreased. Technician B says that if a small piston acts upon a larger piston, the force of the larger piston will increase, but the distance it travels will decrease. Who is correct? A. Technician B only B. Technician A only C. Both Technician A and B D. Neither Technician A nor B

the correct option is A. Only technician B is correct.

Hydraulics works on the pascal law, which states that in a direction the hydro static fluid pressure remains constant.

Px=Py=Pz

Since small piston has small area compare to the large piston

Pbig=Psmall

Fbig/Abig=Fsm/Asm

Fbig=\frac{Abig}{Asmall}*Fsmall

thus the force on the large piston will increase, but it travel small distance.

What do you mean by pressure of a liquid? Write its Sl unit.​
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressure of a liquid is the rate of the force applied by the liquid on a surface per unit area of the surface.

i.e P = \frac{F}{A}

where P is the pressure, F is the force and A is the area.

The depth of the liquid determines its pressure at a definite lower point. As the pressure of a liquid at the bottom of a its container is greater than the pressure at the top of the liquid.

Thus,

P = σhg

where P is the pressure, σ is the density of the liquid, h is the height and g is the force of gravity.

It is measured in Pascals or Nm^{-2}.

The pressure of liquid has a lot of applications, viz: siphon, force pump, lift pump etc.

When a 58g tennis ball is served, it accelerates from rest to a constant speed of 36 m/s. The impact with the racket gives the b
inysia [295]
We first calculate the acceleration on the ball using:
2as = v² - u²; u = 0 because ball is initially at rest
a = (36)²/(2 x  0.35)
a = 1850 m/s²
F = ma
F = 0.058 x 1850
= 107.3 Newtons

Write the equation of a wave traveling along the +x-axis with an amplitude of 0.02 m, a frequency of 440 Hz, and a speed of 330m
Airida [17]

The equation of the wave travelling along the +x-axis is y = 0.02 sin (880π/330 x – 880 πt)

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given data

Amplitude 0.02 m , Frequency= 440 Hz ,Speed = 330 m/s

The equation  format is written as,

y =   A   sin (       k        x  –   ω     t)

We need the value of  A, k, x -ω t

<u>1. Find the k value</u>

v     =  f ×λ

330 = 440×λ

   k = 2π×λ

k = 880 π /330  m-1

440 ×2π = w

<u>2. Find the ω  value</u>

f×2π =ω

ω = 880 π  s-1

<u>3. Find the A value</u>

we get A value from the given data

A = 0.02 m

By the formula,

y =   A   sin (       k        x  –   ω     t)

Substitute the values we get the equation,

y = 0.02 sin (880π/330 x – 880 πt)

The equation of the wave travelling along the +x-axis is y = 0.02 sin (880π/330 x – 880 πt)

How can force-time and force-displacement graphs be used to find the impulse or work done?
balandron [24]

Answer:

A. Area under force-time graph & Area under force-displacement graph

Explanation:

To find the impulse or work done the area under force-time graph and area under force-displacement graph will give us these respective values.

 Impulse  = Force x time

 Work done  = Force x displacement

When we plot a graph of force and time, the area under it is the impulse.

When a graph of force and displacement is plotted, the area under is the work done.
