A mechanic pushes a 2.30 ✕ 103-kg car from rest to a speed of v, doing 4,800 J of work in the process. During this time, the car
Illusion [34]

The horizontal force applied is  160 N while the velocity is  2.03 m/s.

<h3>What is the speed of the car?</h3>

The work done by the car is obtained as the product of the force and the distance;

W = F x

F = ?

x = 30.0 m

W = 4,800 J

F = 4,800 J/30.0 m

F = 160 N

But F = ma

a = F/m

a = 160 N/2.30 ✕ 10^3-kg

a= 0.069 m/s

Now;

v^2 = u^2 + 2as

u = 0/ms because the car started from rest

v = √2as

v = √2 * 0.069 * 30

v = 2.03 m/s

A 500 N weight sits on the small piston of a hydraulic machine. The small piston has area 2.0 cm2. If the large piston has area
Ghella [55]

Answer:

d. 10000N

Explanation:

When a force (F_1) is exerted on the smaller area piston (A_1), the pressure that originates therein is transmitted to the larger area piston(A_2). According to Pascal's principle the pressure on the smallest piston (P_1=\frac{F_1}{A_1}) will be equal to the pressure on the largest piston (P_2=\frac{F_2}{A_2}):

\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}\\F_2=F_1\frac{A_2}{A_1}\\F_2=500N\frac{40cm}{2cm}\\F_2=10000N

Torque can be best described as which of the following? Give an example of both a force and a torque and explain why in a couple
kicyunya [14]

Answer: rotational force

Explanation:

Torque is the twisting force which cause rotation and the axis of rotation is the point at which the object rotates.

Torque is a rotational force as it leads to the rotation of an object about an axis. Force simply means a pull or push. When an unbalanced ball acts on a force, the ball, the ball will be moved towards the linear motion.

Then, the unbalanced force that is acting in the ball produces torque which causes the ball's rotational motion.

What is a conversion factor?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

A ratio of equivalent units

Explanation:

A conversion factor is a ratio of equivalent units and depends on which units are to be converted.

For example we want to convert 275 [mm] to inches, so we have to find the right conversion factor to allow us to work that conversion.

275 [mm] = inches = ?

275 [mm] * \frac{1in}{25.4mm} = 10.82 [in]

In this case the ratio is 1/25.4 = 0.039 [in/mm]
