A 57.0 kg cheerleader uses an oil-filled hydraulic lift to hold four 120 kg football players at a height of 1.10 m. If her pisto

lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The diameter of the piston of the players equals 55.136 cm.

Explanation:

from the principle of transmission of pressure in a hydraulic lift we have

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

Since the force in the question is the weight of the individuals thus upon putting the values in the above equation we get

$\frac{57.0\times 9.81}{\frac{\pi \times (19.0)^{2}}{4}}=\frac{4\times 120\times 9.81}{\frac{\pi \times D_{2}^{2}}{4}}$

Solving for $D_{2}$ we get

$D_{2}^{2}=\frac{4\times 120}{57}\times 19^{2}\\\\\therefore D_{2}=\sqrt{\frac{4\times 120}{57}}\times 19\\\\D_{2}=55.136cm$

A circuit contains a 305 ohm resistor, a 1.1 micro Farad capacitor, and a 42 mH inductor. At resonance, the impedance is determi

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The resistance of the inductor at resonance is 258.76 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

resistance of the resistor, R = 305 ohm

capacitance of the capacitor, C = 1.1 μF = 1.1 x 10⁻⁶ F

inductance of the inductor, L = 42 mH = 42 x 10⁻³ H = 0.042 H

At resonance the inductive reactance is equal to capacitive reactance.

$\omega L = \frac{1}{\omega C}\\\\2\pi F_0 L = \frac{1}{2\pi F_0 C}\\\\F_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC} }$

Where;

F₀ is the resonance frequency

$F_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{LC} } \\\\F_0 = \frac{1}{2\pi\sqrt{(0.024)(1.1*10^{-6})} }\\\\F_0 =980.4 \ Hz$

The inductive reactance is given by;

$X_l = 2\pi F_0 L\\\\X_l = 2\pi (980.4)(0.042) \\\\X_l = 258.76 \ ohms$

Therefore, the resistance of the inductor at resonance is 258.76 ohms.

Since entropy is about how energy is shared, it is important to be able to identify places where energy can be put, or degrees o

Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Please see answer in explanation

Explanation:

1. Since each molecule has three kinetic degrees of freedom (can move in three independent directions), the gas must have 3N DoFs.

2. Each molecule has the three kinetic degrees of freedom the monotonic atom has moving without rotating but it can also spin. There are three axes for it to spin around so we would expect three rotational degrees of freedom, but as were as above, the one about the diatomic molecule's axis doesn't count because of quantum. So we have two rotational DoFs and three kinetic, for a total of 5 per molecules. So the gas will have 5N DoFs.

3.When a spring vibrates it has two DoFs, its KE and its PE, so adding 1 vibration adds 2 DoFs per molecule, giving 7 per molecule and giving thegas 7N DoFs.

Expain how a hurricane develops

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

A hurricane starts to form when warm air rises and then that warm air turns into cooler air. After a while of this happening large clouds and thunderstorms are made. The clouds and thunderstorms keep growing and rotating from earth's Coriolis Effect. Then a hurricane forms.
