The figure shows the arrangement of master cylinder and slave cylinder of a part of braking system. The master cylinder piston,

of surface area 8 cm2 exerts a force of 28 N on the brake fluid when the driver presses the brake pedal Calculate the pressure on the brake fluid produced by the master piston This pressure is transmitted to the slave piston that has surface area of 40 cm2. Calculate the force exerted on this piston State two methods of increasing the force produced by the slave cylinder piston.

Answer:

a) 35 kPa

d) 140 N

c) 1) Increasing the brake fluid  pressure

2)  Increasing the slave piston surface area.

Explanation:

The parameters given are;

a) Force applied to the master cylinder piston = 28 N

Cross sectional area of the master cylinder piston = 8 cm² = 8 × 10⁻⁴ m²

The pressure P on the brake fluid is given by the formula for pressure as follows;

P= \dfrac{Applied \ force}{Area \over \ which \  force \ is \ applied} = \dfrac{28 \, N}{8 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2} = 35,000 \, N/m^2 = 35,000 \, Pa

The pressure on the brake fluid, P, produced by the master cylinder piston = 35,000 Pa = 35 kPa

b) Given that the area of the slave piston = 40 cm² = 0.004 m², we have from the formula for pressure, P;

P= \dfrac{Applied \ force}{Area \over \ which \  force \ is \ applied} = \dfrac{Applied \ force}{4 \times 10^{-3} \, m^2} = 35,000 \, N/m^2

Therefore;

Applied force on the slave piston = 4 × 10⁻³ m² × 35,000 N/m² = 140 N

c) The force, F produced by the slave cylinder piston is given by the relation;

F = Pressure × Area

Therefore, the two ways of increasing the force produced by the slave cylinder piston is as follows;

1) Increasing the pressure in the brake fluid by increasing the force exerted by the master cylinder piston

2) Increasing the surface area of the slave piston.

Through what potential difference would you need to accelerate an alpha particle, starting from rest, so that it will just reach
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

Explanation:

GIVEN

diameter = 15 fm  =15 \times 10^{-15}m

we use here energy conservation

K_{i}+U_{i} =K_{f}+U_{f}

there will be some initial kinetic  energy but after collision kinetic energy will zero

K_{i} + 0 = 0 + \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon _{0}} \frac{(2e)(92e)}{7.5 \times 10^{-15}}

on solving these equations we get kinetic energy initial

KE_{i} = 5.65\times 10 ^{-12} \times \frac  {1 eV}{1.6 \times 10^{-19}}

KE_{i} = 35.33 J ..............(i)

That is, the alpha particle must be fired with 35.33 MeV of kinetic energy. An alpha particle with charge q = 2  e

and gains kinetic energy K  =e∆V  ..........(ii)

 by accelerating through a potential difference ∆V

Thus the alpha particle will

just reach the {238}_U nucleus after being accelerated through a potential difference  ∆V

equating (i) and second equation we get

e∆V  = 35.33 Me V

\Delta V = \frac{35.33}{2}  MV\\\Delta V    = 1.8 \times 10^7 V

maxonik [38]

Answer: work must be done on the system  (Option A)

Explanation:

The second law of thermodynamics is the fundamental law of nature; it states that energy can be transferred from cold objects to hot objects only, if work is done on the system. If energy is added to the system then as a result the thermal energy would increase. Second law of thermodynamics is used to determine whether a process is spontaneous or not.  Moreover,the second law of thermodynamics is also used in refrigerators.

the gas in a balloon has P=100000 pa and v=0.0279 m^3. if the pressure increases to 120000 pa at constant temperature, what is t
mash [69]

Answer:

New volume of the baloon is 0.02325m^3

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to know the ideal gas law, which says:

p•V = n•R•T

p is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of substance (in moles), R is constant value and T is temperature.

Since it's stated that n and T are constant, and we know that R is a constant too, that means that p•V = constant value. Basically, that means that p1•V1 (pressure and volume before the pressure increase) equals to p2•V2 (pressure and volume after the pressure increase).

That means that:

100000 Pa • 0.0279 m^3 = 120000 Pa • V2. Next, V2= 100000•0.0279/120000. So, V2=0.02325m^3.

An object has an average acceleration of +6.18 m/s2 for 0.266 s . At the end of this time the object's velocity is +9.90 m/s .
Archy [21]

At the start of the 0.266 s, the object's speed was 8.26 m/s.

The question can only be talking about speed, not velocity.
