A hypodermic needle consists of a plunger of circular cross-section that slides inside a hollow cylindrical syringe. when the pl

unger is pushed, the contents of the syringe are forced through a hollow needle (also of circular cross-section). if a 4.0-n force is applied to the plunger and the diameters of the plunger and the needle are 1.2 cm and 2.5 mm, respectively, what force, in n, is needed to prevent fluid flow at the needle?

The fluid that is being passed through the syringe and needle is incompressible, which means that it will transmit pressure equally. Therefore, the pressure on the plunger will be equivalent to the pressure on the needle. We also know that:

Pressure = Force / Area

Pressure on plunger = 4 / (π*(0.012/2)²)
Pressure on plunger = 35.4 kPa
Pressure on needle = 35.4 kPa

35.4 kPa = F / (4 / (π*(0.0025/2)²)
F = 0.17 N

The force on the needle is 0.17 N

A disc is thrown through the air for 1.5 min with a power output of 12.5 W. How much work is done when throwing the disc?
klasskru [66]

Answer:

work = 1125 [J]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember the definition of power, which is defined as the relationship between work and time. The power can be calculated using the following equation:

Power = work/time

Power = 12.5 [w]

work = joules [J]

time = 1.5 [min] = 90 [s]

work = 12.5*90

work = 1125 [J]

P14.003A spherical gas-storage tank with an inside diameter of 8.1 m is being constructed to store gas under an internal pressur
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

The minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank is 0.0189 m

Explanation:

Given data:

d = inside diameter = 8.1 m

P = internal pressure = 1.26 MPa

σ = 270 MPa

factor of safety = 2

Question: Determine the minimum wall thickness required for the spherical tank, tmin = ?

The allow factor of safety:

\sigma _{a}  =\frac{\sigma }{factor-of-safety} =\frac{270}{2} =135MPa

The minimun wall thickness:

t=\frac{Pd}{4\sigma _{a} } =\frac{1.26*8.1}{4*135} =0.0189m
