Problem 4: Hydraulic systems utilize Pascal's principle by transmitting pressure from one cylinder (called the primary) to anoth

er (called the secondary). Since the pressures will be equal, if the surface areas are different then the forces applied to the cylinders' pistons will be different. Suppose in a hydraulic lift, the piston of the primary cylinder has a 1.95-cm diameter and the piston of the secondary cylinder has a 24.5-cm diameter.
What force, in newtons, must be exerted on the primary cylinder of this lift to support the weight of a 2250 kg car (a large car) resting on the secondary cylinder?

Answer: F = 139.65 N

Explanation:

Using Pascal principle:

F = P * A, where

F = Force applied to the piston

P = Pressure

A = Piston area

also, we know generally,

A = πd²/4, in this case,

d= piston diameter

Calculation of the force Fp necessary to support the weight of the car.

Now, we use the Pascal principle: to solve,

Fp = P * Ap, where

Fp = Force on the primary piston

Ap = Primary piston area

we know our Ap but not P, so to find P

We use Newton's first law for a balanced Secondary piston -automobile system

Newton's first law: ∑F = 0

W - Fs = 0, where

W = car weight

Fs = Force on the secondary piston

Thus, W = Fs, if we put this in the equation, it becomes

W = P * As, where

As= Secondary piston area

making P subject of formula,

P = W / As

Substituting this in the initial equation, we have

Fp = W/As * Ap

From this, we know that

As = πds²/4

Ap = πdp²/4, so that

Fp = W/(πds²/4) * πdp²/4

Fp = 4W/πds² * πdp²/4

Fp = W/ds² * dp²

Fp = 2250/24.5² * 1.95²

Fp = 2250/600.25 * 3.8025

Fp = 14.25 kg

Converting to N, we have

14.25 * 9.8 = 139.65 N

Answer:

Find answers below.

Explanation:

1. Radiant: the energy of light.

2. Light: makes it possible to see things.

3. Sun: a source of light. This source of light is referred to as solar energy and it's renewable source of energy.

4. Crest: top of wave. Thus, it's typically the highest part of an electromagnetic wave.

5. Trough: bottom of wave. Thus, it's typically the lowest part of an electromagnetic wave.

6. Wavelength: distance from one point on one wave to the same point on the next wave.

7. Infrared light: it has longer wavelengths than visible light.

8. X-rays: shorter wavelengths than visible light.

Electromagnetic waves is a propagating medium used in all communications device to transmit data (messages) from the device of the sender to the device of the receiver.

An electromagnetic spectrum refers to a range of frequency and wavelength that an electromagnetic wave is distributed or extends. The electromagnetic spectrum comprises of gamma rays, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, x-rays, radio waves, and infrared radiation.

Consider eight,eight-cubic centimeter (8 cm3) sugar cubes stacked so that they form a single 2 x 2 x 2 cube. How does the surfac
In-s [12.5K]
To find the surface area of a single cube we first nees to take the cube root of 8cm3 which is 2.

Now we know that the length of each side is 2 and we can find the area of one side by doing 2x2 which is 4.

To find the total surface area of one cube we do 4 times 6 side giving us a total of 24cm2.

To find the total surface area of the 8 individual cubes, we multiply 24cm2 by 8 to give us a total of 192cm2.

Now to find the total surface area of the one large cube, we know that each side of one of the small cubes is 4cm2 and the large cube is set up so that there are two levels of four cubes right on top of each other. So, the total area of each side of the large cube is 4cm2 times 4 which gives us 16cm2.

Then we multiply 16cm2 by 6 sides to give us a total surface area of 96cm2.

The ratio of the surface area of the single large cube comapred to the total surface area of the single cubes is 96:192

We can further simplify this ratio:

96:192

48:96

24:48

12:24

6:12

Help me please I can't get the final step​
inna [77]

Answer:

\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{3},\ n=\frac{4}{3}

Explanation:

<u>Dimensional Analysis</u>

It's given the relation between quantities A, B, and C as follows:

\displaystyle A=\frac{3}{2}B^mC^n

and the dimensions of each variable is:

A=L^2T^2

B=LT^{-1}

C=LT^2

Substituting the dimensions into the relation (the coefficient is not important in dimension analysis):

\displaystyle L^2T^2=\left(LT^{-1}\right)^m\left(LT^2\right)^n

Operating:

L^2T^2=\left(L^mT^{-m}\right)\left(L^nT^{2n}\right)

L^2T^2=L^{m+m}T^{-m+2n}

Equating the exponents:

m+n=2

-m+2n=2

Adding both equations:

3n=4

Solving:

n=4/3

m=2-4/3=2/3

Answer:

\mathbf{\displaystyle m=\frac{2}{3},\ n=\frac{4}{3}}
