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.

A block of mass m1 = 3.5 kg moves with velocity v1 = 6.3 m/s on a frictionless surface. it collides with block of mass m2 = 1.7
maxonik [38]
First, let's find the speed v_i of the two blocks m1 and m2 sticked together after the collision.
We can use the conservation of momentum to solve this part. Initially, block 2 is stationary, so only block 1 has momentum different from zero, and it is:
p_i = m_1 v_1
After the collision, the two blocks stick together and so now they have mass m_1 +m_2 and they are moving with speed v_i:
p_f = (m_1 + m_2)v_i
For conservation of momentum
p_i=p_f
So we can write
m_1 v_1 = (m_1 +m_2)v_i
From which we find
v_i =  \frac{m_1 v_1}{m_1+m_2}= \frac{(3.5 kg)(6.3 m/s)}{3.5 kg+1.7 kg}=4.2 m/s

The two blocks enter the rough path with this velocity, then they are decelerated because of the frictional force \mu (m_1+m_2)g. The work done by the frictional force to stop the two blocks is
\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
where d is the distance covered by the two blocks before stopping.
The initial kinetic energy of the two blocks together, just before entering the rough path, is
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2
When the two blocks stop, all this kinetic energy is lost, because their velocity becomes zero; for the work-energy theorem, the loss in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the frictional force:
\frac{1}{2} (m_1+m_2)v_i^2 =\mu (m_1+m_2)g  d
From which we can find the value of the coefficient of kinetic friction:
\mu =  \frac{v_i^2}{2gd}= \frac{(4.2 m/s)^2}{2(9.81 m/s^2)(1.85 m)}=0.49

Compare the time period of two simple pendulums of length 4m and 16m at a place.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum

Explanation:

Recall that the period (T) of a pendulum of length (L)  is defined as:

T=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }

where "g" is the local acceleration of gravity.

SInce both pendulums are at the same place, "g" is the same for both, and when we compare the two periods, we get:

T_1=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{4}{g} } \\T_2=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{16}{g} } \\ \\\frac{T_2}{T_1} =\sqrt{\frac{16}{4} } =2

therefore the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum.
