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 is wrong with the following statement: When you exert a force on a baseball, the equal and opposite force on the ball balan
gregori [183]

Answer:

When you exert a force on a baseball, there exists an equal and opposite force on the ball therefore, the ball will accelerate in opposite direction.

Explanation:

When you hit a ball with baseball bat, the bat exerts a great force on the ball which causes the ball to accelerate in the opposite direction. It is to be noted that the mass of bat is much greater than mass of ball but the acceleration of ball is also greater than the acceleration of the bat so both bat and ball almost exert same magnitude of force but in opposite direction and as a result both bat and ball accelerate in opposite direction, the deciding factor is of course the relative force applied by the batter and the bowler.

A 15-µF capacitor and a 25-µF capacitor are connected in parallel, and charged to a potential difference of 60 V. How much energ
Alborosie

Answer:

Energy stored, E = 0.072 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Capacitance, C_1=15\ \mu F

Capacitance, C_2=25\ \mu F

These two capacitor are connected in parallel, and charged to a potential difference of, V = 60 volts

We know that in parallel combination of capacitor, the equivalent capacitance is given by :

C=C_1+C_2\\\\C=(15+25)\ \mu F\\\\C=40\times 10^{-6}\ F

The energy stored in the capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2\\\\E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 40\times 10^{-6}\times (60)^2\\\\E=0.072\ J

So, the energy stored in the capacitor in this capacitor combination is 0.072 J.
