The drawing shows a hydraulic chamber with a spring (spring constant = 1600 N/m) attached to the input piston and a rock of mass

40.0 kg resting on the output plunger. The piston and plunger are nearly at the same height, and each has a negligible mass. By how much is the spring compressed from its unstrained position?

Answer:

$\Delta x=245\ mm$

Explanation:

Given:

spring constant of the spring attached to the input piston, $k=1600\ N.m^{-1}$

mass subjected to the output plunger, $m=40\ kg$

<u>Now, the force due to the mass:</u>

$F=m.g$

$F=40\times 9.8$

$F=392\ N$

<u>Compression in Spring:</u>

$\Delta x=\frac{F}{k}$

$\Delta x=\frac{392}{1600}$

$\Delta x=0.245\ m$

or

$\Delta x=245\ mm$

Stels [109]

Answer:

<h3>n(F) = 4</h3>

Explanation:

Cardinality of a set is the number of elements in that set. Given the set.

F= {mango, apple, banana, orange), we are to determine the cardinality of the set i.e the amount of fruit present in the set. Cardinality of the set F is represented as n(F).

Since there are 4 different fruit in the given set F, hence the cardinality of the set F is n(F) = 4

Determine W (or fuel energy) required to launch a satellite of mass m at rest from a launching pad placed at the surface earth,

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

5. 9GmM/(10R)

Explanation:

m is the mass of the satellite

M is the mass of the earth

W is the energy required to launch the satellite

Energy at earth surface = Potential energy (PE) + W

W = Energy at earth surface - Potential energy (PE)

But PE = $-\frac{GMm}{R}$

Therefore: W = Energy at earth surface - $\frac{GMm}{R}$

Energy at earth surface (E) at an altitude of 5R = $-\frac{GMm}{5r} +\frac{1}{2}mV^2$

But $V=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{5R} }$

Therefore: $E=-\frac{GMm}{5R}+\frac{1}{2}m(\sqrt{\frac{GM}{5R} } )^2= -\frac{GMm}{5R}+\frac{GMm}{10R} = -\frac{GMm}{10R}$

W = E - PE

$W=-\frac{GMm}{10R}-(-\frac{GMm}{R})=-\frac{GMm}{10R}+\frac{GMm}{R}=\frac{9GMm}{10R} \\W=\frac{9GMm}{10R}$

A man takes 20 seconds to climb 5m up a ladder. He weighs 720N. Calculate the power he must deliver to do this.

Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

180 W

Explanation:

The work done by the man against gravity is equal to its gain in gravitational potential energy:

$W=mg\Delta h$

where

(mg) = 720 N is the weight of the man

$\Delta h= 5 m$ is the change in height

Substituting,

$W=(720)(5)=3600 J$

The power he must deliver is given by

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where

W = 3600 J

t = 20 s is the time taken

Substituting,

$P=\frac{3600}{20}=180 W$

A circular window of 30 cm diameter in a submarine can withstand a maximum force of 5.20 × 105 N. The maximum depth in a lake to

Svetach [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

F = $5.20 \times 10^{5}$ N

g = 9.8 m/s

radius = $\frac{diameter}{2}$

= $\frac{30 cm}{2}$ = 15 cm = 0.15 m (as 1 m = 100 cm)

Formula to calculate depth is as follows.

F = $\rho \times g \times h \times A$

or, h = $\frac{F}{\rho \times g \times A}$

h = $\frac{5.2 \times 10^{5}}{1000 \times 9.8 \times (3.1416 \times (0.15 m^{2})}$

= 751 m

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum depth in a lake to which the submarine can go without damaging the window is closest 750 m.
