An input force is applied to a 2 cm diameter piston. The piston compresses oil and is connected to a 4 cm diameter output piston
____ [38]

Answer:

4 times

Explanation:

Given:

diameter of the input piston, d_i=2\ cm=0.02\ m

diameter of the output piston, d_o=4\ cm=0.04\ m

In such mechanical arrangements the fluid acts as an incompressible link and the pressure remains uniform throughout the fluid bulk.

Then, by the Pascal's law:

\frac{F_i}{A_i} =\frac{F_o}{A_o}

where:

F_i\ \&\ F_o are the input and the output forces respectively.

A_i\ \&\ A_o are the input and the output area of pistons respectively.

\frac{F_i\times 4}{\pi.d_i^2} =\frac{F_o\times 4}{\pi.d_o^2}

\frac{F_i}{d_i^2} =\frac{F_o}{d_o^2}

\frac{F_o}{0.04^2}=\frac{F_i}{0.02^2}

F_o=4\times F_i

How does friction make it possible for you to walk across the floor?
Tema [17]

if we are walking on a perfectly smooth ground which has no friction our force would simply cancel out the force reverted by the ground and we would fall.

We need it to help push out feet off the ground

Hope those helps :)

suppose a ball had a potential energy of 5 j when you dropped it. What would be its kinetic energy just as it hit the ground. (i
Andru [333]
Since we are ignoring air resistance which is a non-conservative force, the potential energy will be completely converted into kinetic energy, resulting in a final kinetic energy of 5J.

Part A
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

A) U₀ = ϵ₀AV²/2d

B) U₁ = (ϵ₀AV²)/6d

This means that the new energy of the capacitor is (1/3) of the initial energy before the increased separation.

C) U₂ = (kϵ₀AV²)/2d

Explanation:

A) The energy stored in a capacitor is given by (1/2) (CV²)

Energy in the capacitor initially

U₀ = CV²/2

V = voltage across the plates of the capacitor

C = capacitance of the capacitor

But the capacitance of a capacitor depends on the geometry of the capacitor is given by

C = ϵA/d

ϵ = Absolute permissivity of the dielectric material

ϵ = kϵ₀

where k = dielectric constant

ϵ₀ = permissivity of free space/air/vacuum

A = Cross sectional Area of the capacitor

d = separation between the capacitor

If air/vacuum/free space are the dielectric constants,

So, k = 1 and ϵ = ϵ₀

U₀ = CV²/2

Substituting for C

U₀ = ϵ₀AV²/2d

B) Now, for U₁, the new distance between plates, d₁ = 3d

U₁ = ϵ₀AV²/2d₁

U₁ = ϵ₀AV²/(2(3d))

U₁ = (ϵ₀AV²)/6d

This means that the new energy of the capacitor is (1/3) of the initial energy before the increased separation.

C) U₂ = CV²/2

Substituting for C

U₂ = ϵAV²/2d

The dielectric material has a dielectric constant of k

ϵ = kϵ₀

U₂ = (kϵ₀AV²)/2d
