Answer:

734.215N

Explanation:

First we calculate the angle that corresponds to a 5% slope using the Tan-1 function

\beta = tan-1(5%)=2.86

then we use the component that corresponds to the direction parallel to the road, additionally we must multiply by the gravity value to find the weight(g=9.81m/s^2)

Wx=M*g*sen(2.86)=1500kg*9.81*sen(2.86)=734.215N

Answer:

733.47 N

Explanation:

For 5% grade, the elevation of the road is

tanθ = 5/100

θ = tan⁻¹0.05 = 2.86°. Which is the angle of elevation of the road.

The component of the weight parallel to the road is thus mgsinθ = 1500 kg × 9.8 m/s²sin2.86° = 733.47 N

Determina el volumen de 450 g de alcohol
Rufina [12.5K]

Luego de utilizar la fórmula del volumen de un líquido encontramos que si el acohol tiene 450 gramos entonces su volumen es de

La fórmula del volumen de la densidad de un líquido es la siguiente:

Densidad= Masa / Volumen

Volumen =Masa / Densidad

Es conocido que la densidad del alcohol es 789 kg/m³, y como sabemos por dato que tiene 450gr el siguiente paso es la sustitución:

Volumen=0.45/ 789

Volumen = 0,00057 m³

The area of the piston to the master cylinder in a hydraulic braking system of a car is 0.6 square inches. If a force of 5.6 lb
balu736 [363]

Answer:

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.

Explanation:

Force applied on the piston = F_1=5.6 lb

Area of the piston = A_1=0.6 inches^2

Force applied on the brakes = F_2

Area of the brakes = A_2=1.8 inches^2

Applying Pascal's law: 'For an incompressible fluid pressure at one surface is equal to the pressure at other surface'.

\frac{F_1}{A_2}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}

F_2=\frac{5.6 lb\times 1.8 inhes^2}{0.6 inches^2}=16.8 lb

16.8 lb is the force on the brake pad of one wheel.
