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.

What velocity does a 2kg mass have when its kinetic energy is 16 J
alexandr402 [8]
We can use the equation for kinetic energy, K=1/2mv².
Your given variables are already in the correct units, so we can just plug in the variables and solve for v. 

K = 1/2mv²
16 = 1/2(2)v²
16 = (1)v²
√16 = v
v = 4 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of a 2 kg mass with 16 J of kinetic energy is 4 m/s.
Hope this is helpful!

An 80-kgkg quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43-kgkg football horizontally at 15 m/sm/s . How f
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

V = 0.0806 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass quarterback = 80 kg

mass football = 0.43 kg

velocity = 15 m/s

solution

we consider here momentum conservation is in horizontal direction.

so that here no initial momentum of the quarterback

so that final momentum of the system will be 0

so we can say

M(quarterback) ×  V = m(football) × v (football)   ........................1

put here value we get

80 ×  V  = 0.43  × 15

V = 0.0806 m/s
