The weight of a hydraulic barber's chair with a client is 2100 N. When the barber steps on the input piston with a force of 44 N

, the output plunger of a hydraulic system begins to lift the chair. Determine the ratio of the radius of the output plunger to the radius of the input piston.

Answer:

\frac{r_1}{r_2}=6.9

Explanation:

According to Pascal's Law, the pressure transmitted from input pedal to the output plunger must be same:

P_1 = P_2\\\\\frac{F_1}{A_1}=\frac{F_2}{A_2}\\\\\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{A_1}{A_2}\\\\\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{\pi r_1^2}{\pi r_2^2}\\\\\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}

where,

F₁ = Load lifted by output plunger = 2100 N

F₂ = Force applied on input piston = 44 N

r₁ = radius of output plunger

r₂ = radius of input piston

Therefore,

\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}=\frac{2100\ N}{44\ N}\\\\\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt{\frac{2100\ N}{44\ N}} \\\\\frac{r_1}{r_2}=6.9

If you have 80g of a radioactive substance whose half life is 2 days, how long will it take for the substance to decay to the po
Ber [7]

Answer:

6 days.

Explanation:

From radioactivity, The expression for half life is given as,

R/R' = 2⁽ᵃ/ᵇ)................... Equation 1

Where R = original mass of the radioactive substance, R' = Remaining mass of the radioactive substance after decay, a = Total time taken to decay, b = half life.

Given: R = 80 g, R' = 10 g, b = 2 days.

Substitute into equation 1

80/10 = 2⁽ᵃ/²⁾

8 = 2⁽ᵃ/²⁾

2³ = 2⁽ᵃ/²)

Equating the base and solving for a

3 = a/2

a = 2×3

a = 6 days.

A filing cabinet weighing 556 N rests on the floor. The coefficient of static friction between it and the floor is 0.68, and the
zvonat [6]

Explanation:

"Static friction is a force that keeps an object at rest. It must be overcome to start moving the object."

(556 x 0.68) = static friction of 378.08N. before movement occurs.

The  forces (a) and (b) will not move it.  

Each will incur a frictional force preventing movement equal to itself, = 222N. and 334N. respectively.

Forces (c) and (d) will move it, and accelerate it.

Forces (c) and (d) will both encounter friction of (556 x 0.56) = 311.36N. when the cabinet is moving.
