The area of the piston to the master cylinder in a hydraulic braking system of a car is 0.6 square inches. If a force of 5.6 lb

is applied to this piston, what is the force on the brake pad of one wheel if the area of the pad is 1.8 square inches? (Hint: Since the force on each of the four wheels would be the same, you only need to calculate the force on one.)

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = F_1=5.6 lb

Area of the piston = A_1=0.6 inches^2

Force applied on the brakes = F_2

Area of the brakes = A_2=1.8 inches^2

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

When a falling meteoroid is at a distance above the Earth's surface of 3.40 times the Earth's radius, what is its acceleration d
Alchen [17]

Answer:

g = 0.85 ms^{-2}

Explanation:

g = \frac{GM}{h^{2} }

were; g is the acceleration due to Earth's gravity, G is Newton's gravitation constant (6.674 x 10^{-11} Nm^{2}kg^{-2}), M is the mass of the earth (5.972 x 10^{24} kg), and h is the distance of meteoroid to the earth.

h = 3.40 x R

  = 3.40 x 6371 km

h = 21661.4 km

  = 21661400 m

Thus,

g = \frac{6.674*10^{-11}*5.972*10^{24}  }{(21661400)^{2} }

  = \frac{3.9857 *10^{14} }{4.6922*10^{14} }

  = 0.84944

g = 0.85 ms^{-2}

The acceleration due to the Earth's gravitation is 0.85 ms^{-2}.

Why are the wheels on a roller coaster hot after a ride. (I know it’s due to friction but I need more of a detailed answer).
telo118 [61]
2 someone's glasses could fall of because of the inertia
roller coaster is in motion but your glasses are opposing and resisting that motion due to inertia....

1 there is a possibility that electrons move from wheels to the rail and vice versa which also means that it is producing some kind of electrical energy

2.5 g of helium at an initial temperature of 300 K interacts thermally with 9.0 g of oxygen at an initial temperature of 620 K .
muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

2.5 g of He = 2.5 / 4  mole

= .625 moles

9 g of oxygen = 9/32

= .28 mole of oxygen

C_p of He = 3/2 R

C_p of O₂ = 5/2 R

A ) Initial thermal energy of He = 3/2 n R T

= 1.5 x .625 x 8.32 x 300

= 2340 J

Initial thermal energy of O₂ = 5/2 n R T

= 2.5 x .28 x 8.32 x 620

= 3610.88 J

B ) If T be the equilibrium temperature after mixing

gain of heat by helium

= n C_p Δ T

= .625 x 3/2 R x ( T - 300 )

Loss of heat by oxygen

n C_p Δ T

= .28 x 5/2 R x ( 620 - T )

Loss of heat = gain of heat

.625 x 3/2 R x ( T - 300 ) = .28 x 5/2 R x ( 620 - T )

1.875 T- 562.5 = 868- 1.4 T

3.275 T = 1430,5

T = 436.8 K

Thermal energy of He

= 1.5 x .625 x 8.32 x 436.8

= 3407 J

thermal energy of O₂

= 2.5 x .28  x 8.32 x 436.8

= 2543.92 J

C )

Heat energy transferred

=  .28 x 5/2 R x ( 620 - T )

=  .28 x 5/2 x  8.32 x ( 620 - 436.8 )

1066.95 J

Heat will flow from O₂ to He

Final temperature is 436.8 K
