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

Photons with the highest energy have the ____
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

D. shortest wavelength

Explanation:

Photons with the highest energy have the shortest wavelength. The shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy of a photon.

A photon is a quantity that transmits electromagnetic energy from one place to the other.

  • Gamma rays have photons that transmits the highest amount of energy.
  • The rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency of all electromagnetic radiations.

Energy, wavelength and frequency of a photon are connected using the expression:

    E =  h f  = \frac{hc}{wavelength}  

E is the energy

h is the Planck's constant

 f is the frequency.

IRINA_888 [86]

Complete question :

NASA is concerned about the ability of a future lunar outpost to store the supplies necessary to support the astronauts the supply storage area of the lunar outpost where gravity is 1.63m/s/s can only support 1 x 10 over 5 N. What is the maximum WEIGHT of supplies, as measured on EARTH, NASA should plan on sending to the lunar outpost?

Answer:

601000 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Acceleration due to gravity at lunar outpost = 1.6m/s²

Supported Weight of supplies = 1 * 10^5 N

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth surface = 9.8m/s²

Maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH :

Ratio of earth gravity to lunar post gravity:

(Earth gravity / Lunar post gravity) ;

(9.8 / 1.63) = 6.01

Hence, maximum weight of supplies as measured on EARTH should be :

6.01 * (1 × 10^5)

6.01 × 10^5

= 601000 N

An average hole drift velocity of 103 cm/sec results when 2 V is applied across a 1 cm long semiconductor bar. What is the hole
Helga [31]

Answer:

ε = 2 V/cm

Explanation:

To calculate the mobility inside this bar, we just need to apply the expression that let us determine the mobility. This expression is the following:

ε = ΔV / L

Where:

ε: Hole mobility inside the bar

ΔV: voltage applied in the bar

L: Length of the bar

We already have the voltage and the length so replacing in the above expression we have:

ε = 2 V / 1 cm

<h2>ε = 2 V/cm</h2><h2></h2>

The data of the speed can be used for further calculations, but in this part its not necessary.

Hope this helps

A substance freezes at -58c therefore substance melts at ?
Yanka [14]
The freezing point is the same as the melting point.

If it freezes at -58°C, hence the melting point is also <span>-58°C.</span>
