Answer:

The force exerted on the bill is \bf{1.3 \times 10^{6}~lb-wt}.

Explanation:

Given:

The pressure generated by the press, P = 8.60 \times 10^{4}~lb/in^{2}

A $20 bill has the length, l = 6.1~in and breadth, b = 2.6~in.

The force on any object is given by

F = PA

where P is the pressure and A is the area of the object.

The area of the bill is

A &=& l \times b\\~~~&=& (6.1~in)(2.6~in)\\~~~&=& 15.86~in^{2}

The force exerted on the bill is

F &=& (8.60 \times 10^{4}~lb/in^{2})(15.86~in^{2})\\~~~&=& 1.3 \times 10^{6}~lb-wt

True or False. The pressure inside a piston is the same in all directions.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pascal's law says that pressure applied to an enclosed fluid will be transmitted without a change in magnitude to every point of the fluid and to the walls of the container. The pressure at any point in the fluid is equal in all directions.

A long solenoid of radius 3 cm has 1100 turns per meter. If the solenoid carries a current of 1.5 A, then calculate the magnetic
Arada [10]

Answer:

The magnetic field at the center of the solenoid is 2.1  × 10⁻³ T

Explanation:

The magnetic field B at the center of the solenoid is given by

B = μ₀ni where μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π × 10⁻⁷H/m, n = number of turns per unit length of the solenoid = 1100 turns per meter and i = current in the solenoid = 1.5 A.

So B = μ₀ni

= 4π × 10⁻⁷H/m × 1100 × 1.5 A

= 4π × 10⁻⁷H/m × 1650 A-turns/m

= 20734.5 × 10⁻⁷T  

= 2.07345 × 10⁻³ T

≅ 2.1  × 10⁻³ T

So the magnetic field at the center of the solenoid is 2.1  × 10⁻³ T
