In the process of changing a flat tire, a motorist uses a hydraulic jack. She begins by applying a force of 48 N to the input pi

ston, which has a radius r1. As a result, the output plunger, which has a radius r2, applies a force to the car. The ratio r2/r1 has a value of 9.0. Ignore the height difference between the input piston and output plunger and determine the force that the output plunger applies to the car.

Answer:

Force that the output plunger applies to the car; F2 = 3888N

Explanation:

For a hydraulic device, the relationship between the force and the area using Pascal's principle is;

F1/A1 = F2/A2

Where;

F1 is force applied to the input piston

F2 is force that the output plunger applies to the car

A1 is Area of input piston

A2 is area of larger piston

We are given;

R2/R1 = 9

So,R2 = 9R1

F1 = 48N

Area of input piston;

A1 = π(R1)²

Area of output piston;

A2 = π(9R1)²

Since, (F1/A1) = (F2/A2)

Thus;

F1/(π(R1)²) = F2/(π(9R1)²)

If we simplify, π(R1)² will cancel out to give;

F1 = F2/9²

Thus;

F2 = 9² x F1

Plugging in 48N for F1, we have;

F2 = 9² x 48

F2 = 81 x 48

F2 = 3888N

What is the drawback to using superconductors?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Option A

The cost of keeping the semiconductor below the critical temperature is unreasonable

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand what superconductors are. Superconductors are special materials that conduct electrical current with almost zero resistance. This means that there is little or no need for a voltage source to be connected to them. As a matter of fact, once a superconductor is connected to a power supply, one can remove the power supply and the current will still flow.

However, most superconducts can only conduct at very low temperatures up to -200 degrees Celcius. This is because, at that temperature, their atoms and molecules are relatively settled, hence they pose little or no resistance to the flow of current.

This as you can guess is extremely difficult to do, as you will need a lot of effort to cool it to that temperature and maintain it.

This makes option a the answer:

The cost of keeping the semiconductor below the critical temperature is unreasonable.

Which is a characteristic that makes electromagnetic waves and water waves different
Paraphin [41]
We know that a wave is a disturbance that transfers energy through matter or space There are two main types of waves: Mechanical and Electromagnetic. Water waves are mechanical. A mechanical wave is an oscillation of matter to transfers energy, but you always need a medium (substance such as: solid, liquid, gas, plasma) to transport it. The medium for water waves is, in fact, the water. For example, ripple in water is a surface wave. On the other hand, electromagnetic waves don't need a medium to transport, they can do it through the empty space. Then, this is the major characteristic that makes these two types of waves different.

How do we get heat on Earth? Does thermal energy travel directly from the sun?
ExtremeBDS [4]
We get heat on earth from the sun. Energy from the sun is transferred through space and through earths atmosphere to the earths surface. And since this warms the earth surface it creates heat.
