In a car lift used in a service station, compressed air exerts a force on a small piston that has a circular cross section and a

radius of 5.00 cm. The pressure is transmitted by a liquid to a piston that has a radius of 15.0 cm. a) What force must the compressed air exert to lift a car weighing 13,300N? b) What air pressure produces this force?
Answer: a) 1.48 x 103 N b) 1.88 x 105 Pa

How do you show the work on this?

Answer:

a) F₁ = 1.48 x 10³ N

b) P = 1.88*10⁵ Pa

c) The work  is equal in both pistons

Explanation:

Pascal´s Principle can be applied in the hydraulic press:

If we apply a small force (F₁) on a small area piston (A₁), then, a pressure (P) is generated that is transmitted equally to all the particles of the liquid until it reaches a larger area piston and therefore a force (F₂) can be exerted that is proportional to the area(A₂) of the piston.

Pressure is defined as the force per unit area:

P=\frac{F}{A}  Formula (1)

P₁=P₂

\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} } =\frac{F_{2} }{A_{2} } Formula (2)

Data

r₁= 5 cm = 0.05 m

r₂= 15 cm = 0.15 m

F₂=  13300N

Area of the pistons (A₁,A₂)

A=π*r² : Area of the circle

A₁ = π*(0.05)²=7.85*10⁻³ m²

A₂= π*(0.15)²= 70.69*10⁻³ m²

a) Force that compressed air must exert to lift a car weighing 13300 N

We replace data in the formula (2)

\frac{F_{1} }{A_{1} } =\frac{F_{2} }{A_{2} }

F_{1} = \frac{13300*7.85*10^{-3} }{70.69*10^{-3} }

F₁ =  1.48 x 10³ N

b) Air pressure produced by F₁

We replace data in the formula (1)

P=\frac{F}{A}

F₁ =  1.48 x 10³ N , A₁ = 7.85*10⁻³ m²

P=\frac{1.48*10^{3} }{7.85*10^{-3} }

P= 1.88*10⁵ Pa

c)The volume of liquid displaced by the small piston is distributed in a thin layer on the large piston, so that the product of the force by the displacement (the work) is equal in both pistons.

• A plastic bag filled with air has a volume of
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The change in the mass of box = 0.01 kg

Volume of air in the polythene bag = Volume of air in the rigid box

Therefore, Volume of air in the box = 0.008 m^3

Now, Density = Mass/ Volume

=> Density = 0.01 / 0.008 = 1.25 Kg / m^3

Four examples of compounds which are classed as carbohydrate​
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Carbohydrates are divided into four types: monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. Monosaccharides consist of a simple sugar; that is, they have the chemical formula C 6 H 12 O 6. Disaccharides are two simple sugars. Oligosaccharides are three to six monosaccharide units, and polysaccharides are more than six.
