A pneumatic system consists of several identical 1.5 inch diameter cylinders to lift 450-pound pallets in a warehouse. the gauge

pressure in the system reservoir remains at 75 psi, and the atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi. assuming that the weight of the pistons is negligible, determine the total number of 1.5-inch cylinders needed in the pneumatic system to lift the 450-pound load.

The applicable equation:

P = F/A

P = pressure
F = Force or weight
A = surface area

Pressure on each cylinder = (W/n)/A
Where n = number of cylinders. Additionally, pressure in the reservoir is equivalent to the pressure in each cylinder.
Net pressure =  75 - 14.7 = 60.3 psi

Therefore,
60.3 = (W/n)/A = (450/n)/(πD^2/4) = (450/n)/(π*1.5^2/4) = (450/n)/(1.7671)
60.3*1.7671 = 450/n
106.03 = 450/n
n = 450/106.3 = 4.244 ≈ 5

The number of cylinders is 5.

A small car is pushing a large truck. They are speeding up.
Gnom [1K]

The force of the truck on the car is equal to the force of the car on the truck.

<h3>What is Newton's third law of motion?</h3>
  • Newton's third law of motion states that action and reaction are equal and opposite.

Let the mass of the small car = m

Let the mass of the truck = M

The force exerted by the small car is calculated as;

F₁ = ma

The force exerted by the large truck is calculated as;

F₂ = Ma

According to Newton's third law, the magnitude of the two forces are equal but opposite in direction.

|F₁| = |F₂|

Thus, we can conclude that, the force of the truck on the car is equal to the force of the car on the truck.

Using a density of air to be 1.21kg/m3, the diameter of the bottom part of the filter as 0.15m (assume circular cross-section),
salantis [7]

Answer:

The  drag coefficient is  D_z  =  1.30512  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The density of air is  \rho_a  = 1.21 \ kg/m^3

     The diameter of bottom part is  d = 0.15 \ m

The  power trend-line  equation is mathematically represented as

      F_{\alpha }  = 0.9226 * v^{0.5737}

let assume that the velocity is  20 m/s

Then

      F_{\alpha }  = 0.9226 * 20^{0.5737}

       F_{\alpha }  = 5.1453 \ N

The drag coefficient is mathematically represented as

      D_z  =  \frac{2 F_{\alpha } }{A \rho v^2 }

Where  

     F_{\alpha } is the drag force

      \rho is the density of the fluid

       v is the flow velocity

       A is the area which mathematically evaluated as

       A = \pi r^2 =  \pi  \frac{d^2}{4}

substituting values

     A =  3.142 *    \frac{(0.15)^2}{4}

     A = 0.0176 \  m^2

Then

   D_z  =  \frac{2 * 5.1453 }{0.0176 * 1.12 *  20^2 }

   D_z  =  1.30512
