Answer:

C) 160 N

Explanation:

m = mass of the car = 2000 kg

Weight of the car is given as

W = mg \\W = (2000) (9.8)\\W = 19600 N

F_{i} = Force exerted on the input piston

A_{i} = Area of input piston = 10 cm x 10 cm = 0.1 m x 0.1 m = 0.01 m²

A_{lift} = Area of lift = 1 m x 1.2 m = 1.2 m²

Using Pascal's law

\frac{F_{i}}{A_{i}} = \frac{W}{A_{lift}}\\\frac{F_{i}}{0.01} = \frac{19600}{1.2}\\F_{i} = 160 N

An automobile tire having a temperature of
EastWind [94]

Answer:

Psm = 30.66 [Psig]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will use the ideal gas equation, recall that the ideal gas state equation is always worked with absolute values.

P * v = R * T

where:

P = pressure [Pa]

v = specific volume [m^3/kg]

R = gas constant for air = 0.287 [kJ/kg*K]

T = temperature [K]

<u>For the initial state</u>

<u />

P1 = 24 [Psi] + 14.7 = 165.47[kPa] + 101.325 = 266.8 [kPa] (absolute pressure)

T1 = -2.6 [°C] = - 2.6 + 273 = 270.4 [K] (absolute Temperature)

Therefore we can calculate the specific volume:

v1 = R*T1 / P1

v1 = (0.287 * 270.4) / 266.8

v1 = 0.29 [m^3/kg]

As there are no leaks, the mass and volume are conserved, so the volume in the initial state is equal to the volume in the final state.

V2 = 0.29 [m^3/kg], with this volume and the new temperature, we can calculate the new pressure.

T2 = 43 + 273 = 316 [K]

P2 = R*T2 / V2

P2 = (0.287 * 316) / 0.29

P2 = 312.73 [kPa]

Now calculating the manometric pressure

Psm = 312.73 -101.325 = 211.4 [kPa]

And converting this value to Psig

Psm = 30.66 [Psig]
