"A 500-N weight sits on the small piston of a hydraulic machine. The small piston has an area of 2.0 cm2. If the large piston ha

s an area of 40 cm2, how much weight can the large piston support? Assume the pistons each have negligible weight."

Answer:

10000 N

Explanation:

F_1 = Force on small piston = 500 N

F_2 = Force on large piston

A_1 = Area of small piston = 2 cm²

A_2 = Area of large piston = 40 cm²

From Pascal's law we have

\dfrac{F_1}{A_1}=\dfrac{F_2}{A_2}\\\Rightarrow F_2=\dfrac{F_1A_2}{A_1}\\\Rightarrow F_2=\dfrac{500\times 40}{2}\\\Rightarrow F_2=10000\ N

Weight the large piston can support is 10000 N

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

t = 47.62 sec

Explanation:

Given data;

A_1 = 4.62 \times 10^4 m^2

A_2 = 2.52 \times 10^4 m^2

h = 2.50 cm

volume 10 L

from

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

4.62 \times 10^4 v_1 = 2.52 \times 10^4 v_2

4.62 v_1 = 2.52 v_2 ......1

from bernoulli eq

P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho g h = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2

P_1 =P_2 = P_{atm}

v_2^2 = v_1^2 +2gh ... 2

from 1 and 2 equation

v_1 = 0.46 m/s

volume flow rate is

Q = A_1 \times v_1 = 4.62 \times 10^[-4} v_1 = 2.1 \times 10^{-4} m^3/s

t  = \frac{v}{Q}

t =\frac{10\times 10^{-3}}{2.1 \times 10^{-4}} = 47.62 s

serg [7]
First:

d = 100 m
t = 200 sec

v = 100/200 = 0.5 m/s

Displacement is zero since he returned to his start point.

t2 = d/v2 = 100/2 = 50 sec

total time = 50 + 200 + 500 = 750 sec

Water occupies two main fluid compartments within the body, the intracellular fluid compartment and the extracellular fluid comp
nadezda [96]

Answer:

C. Approx. Two thirds of the water is in the ICF compartment

Explanation:

The body cells are bathed in fluids internally and externally. The water inside the cells make up about 42% of the total body weight and is called the intracellular fluid (ICF). The rest of the fluid outside the cells is called extracellular fluid (ECF) and is separated from the intracellular fluid by a semipermeable membrane that surrounds the cell, and only allows fluid to flow in and out of the cells, but prevents unwanted molecules or materials from getting in.
