Answer:

38.4 N.

Explanation:

From pascal's principle,

Pressure applied to the first piston = pressure applied to the second piston

F1/A1 = F2/A2 ....................... Equation 1

Where F1 = Force applied to the first piston, A1 = Area of the first piston, F2 = force applied to the second piston, A2 = Area of the second piston.

But,

A1 = πd₁²/4................... Equation 2

A2 = πd₂²/4............... Equation 3

Where d₁ and d₂ are the diameter of the first and second piston respectively.

Substitute equation 2 and equation 3 into equation 1

F1/πd₁²/4 = F2/πd₂²/4

F1/d₁² = F2/d₂² ................. Equation 4

make F2 the subject of the equation,

F2 = (F1×d₂)/d₁²................ Equation 5

Given: F1 = 240 N, d₁ = 4 cm, d₂ = 10 cm.

Substitute into equation 5

F2 = (240×4²)/10²

F2 = 38.4 N.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer: 800

Explanation:

1/2 x m x v^2 = m x g x h

KE = 10 x 10 x 8

A force gives a 5.0 kg object an acceleration of 2.0 m/s 2. The same force would give a 20 kg object an acceleration of _____. 0
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

m = 5 kg

a = 2 m/s²

to find the force that accelerates the 4 kg object @ 2 m/s²

F = ma = 5 kg x 2 m/s² = 10 N

To find what acceleration 10 N would give a 20 kg object

a = F/m = 10 N/20 kg = 0.5 m/s

If we have a new moon today, when we will have the next full moon?.
Sav [38]

29.5 days

It takes 27 days, 7 hours, and 43 minutes for our Moon to complete one full orbit around Earth. This is called the sidereal month, and is measured by our Moon's position relative to distant “fixed” stars. However, it takes our Moon about 29.5 days to complete one cycle of phases (from new Moon to new Moon).
