Q: The small piston of a hydraulic lift has a cross-sectional of 3.00 cm2 and its large piston has a cross-sectional area of 200 cm2. What downward force of magnitude must be applied to the small piston for the lift to raise a load whose weight is Fg = 15.0 kN?

Answer:

225 N

Explanation:

From Pascal's principle,

F/A = f/a ...................... Equation 1

Where F = Force exerted on the larger piston, f = force applied to the smaller piston, A = cross sectional area of the larger piston, a = cross sectional area of the smaller piston.

Making f the subject of the equation,

f = F(a)/A ..................... Equation 2

Given: F = 15.0 kN = 15000 N, A = 200 cm², a = 3.00 cm².

Substituting into equation 2

f = 15000(3/200)

f = 225 N.

Hence the downward force that must be applied to small piston = 225 N

Katena32 [7]

Answer:

P=740 KPa

Δ=7.4 mm

Explanation:

Given that

Diameter of plunger,d=30 mm

Diameter of sleeve ,D=32 mm

Length .L=50 mm

E= 5 MPa

n=0.45

As we know that

Lateral strain

\varepsilon _t=\dfrac{D-d}{d}

\varepsilon _t=\dfrac{32-30}{30}

\varepsilon _t=0.0667

We know that

n=-\dfrac{\epsilon _t}{\varepsilon _{long}}

\varepsilon _{long}=-\dfrac{\epsilon _t}{n}

\varepsilon _{long}=-\dfrac{0.0667}{0.45}

\varepsilon _{long}=-0.148

So the axial pressure

P=E\times \varepsilon _{long}

P=5\times 0.148

P=740 KPa

The movement in the sleeve

\Delta =\varepsilon _{long}\times L

\Delta =0.148\times 50

Δ=7.4 mm

Answer:

1=900j

2=140j

3=5m

Explanation:

1,

work=force×displacement

w=450×2

w=900j

2,

w=f×s

w=70×2

w=140j

3,

w=f×s

200=40×s

200/40=s

s=5m
