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.

<em>Answer: </em>

1. The <em>"contour interval'</em> identifies the standard difference in elevation on a topography graph. It shows the difference in elevation of highest and lowest points on a topography map.   In topographic map every fifth contour line is drawn, wider than the contour lines, called as contour index.


2. Geologist usually study all the materials that make up the earth. He can focus on different rock samples from earth's surface. the geologist works to understand history of the planet where we live on, to predict the future by explaining current occurrences.


3. The difference between the top of the plateau and the lowest point in the area of 250 m measurement is called <em>elevation. </em><em>Elevation is the highest point in the area.</em>


<em>4. </em>Damage from earthquakes is determined by <em>"Ritcher scale"</em>. Seismic waves are the vibrations occurs from earthquakes that can travel through the earth. These vibrations can be detected by the Ritcher scale.
