Answer:

50N

Explanation:

A1 (area of the smaller piston) = 20cm² = 0.2m²

F1 (force acting on the smaller piston) = 10N

F2 (force acting on the larger piston) =?

A2 (area of the larger piston) = 100cm² = 1m²

F1 / A1 = F2 / A2

F2 = (F1*A2) / A1

F2 = (10*1) / 0.2

F2 = 50N

A ball hangs on the end of a string that is connected to the ceiling so that it swings like a pendulum. You pull the ball up so
saw5 [17]

Answer:

When extra energy is added

Explanation:

When the ball is released from rest and swings back towards your face, it will only pass closer to the end of the nose as per the initial conditions. However, when extra energy is added to the ball, it strikes the nose since its velocity and heights are increased. Therefore, the only condition under which the ball hits your nose is when extra energy is added to the system.

A motor must lift a 1500-kg elevator cab. The cab's maximum occupant capacity is 400 kg, and its constant "cruising" speed is 1.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

12900 W

24200 W

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 1.3 m/s

t = 2.0 s

Find: a and Δx

v = at + v₀

(1.3 m/s) = a (2.0 s) + (0 m/s)

a = 0.65 m/s²

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

Δx = ½ (1.3 m/s + 0 m/s) (2.0 s)

Δx = 1.3 m

While accelerating:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − mg = ma

F = m (g + a)

F = (1500 kg + 400 kg) (9.8 m/s² + 0.65 m/s²)

F = 19855 N

Power = work / time

P = W / t

P = Fd / t

P = (19855 N) (1.3 m) / (2.0 s)

P ≈ 12900 W

At constant speed:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − mg = 0

F = mg

F = (1500 kg + 400 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

F = 18620 N

Power = work / time

P = W / t

P = Fd / t

P = Fv

P = (18620 N) (1.3 m/s)

P ≈ 24200 W

The World-War II battleship U.S.S Massachusetts used 16-inch guns whose barrel lengths were 15 m long. The shells each of mass 1
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is 23437500 newtons.

Explanation:

Let suppose that shells are not experiencing any effect from non-conservative forces (i.e. friction, air viscosity) and changes in gravitational potential energy are negligible. The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel can be estimated by Work-Energy Theorem, represented by the following formula:

F\cdot \Delta s = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2}) (1)

Where:

F - Explosive force, measured in newtons.

\Delta s - Barrel length, measured in meters.

m - Mass of the shell, measured in kilograms.

v_{o}, v_{f} - Initial and final speeds of the shell, measured in meters per second.

If we know that m = 1250\,kg, v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}, v_{f} = 750\,\frac{m}{s} and \Delta s = 15\,m, then the explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is:

F = \frac{m\cdot (v_{f}^{2}-v_{o}^{2})}{2\cdot \Delta s}

F = \frac{(1250\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(750\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(0\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]}{2\cdot (15\,m)}

F = 23437500\,N

The explosive force experienced by the shell inside the barrel is 23437500 newtons.
