Answer: 30 N (in the direction of the 45 N force)

Explanation:

You have to choose a positive and negative direction since the question says the forces are in opposite directions.

Lets assume:

- <----------> +

<------ 15 N

45 ------->

45-15=30

The hydraulic oil in a car lift has a density of 8.53 x 102 kg/m3. The weight of the input piston is negligible. The radii of th
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

(a) the input force is 36.56 N

(b) the input force is 37.49 N

Explanation:

Given;

density of hydraulic oil, ρ =  8.53 x 10² kg/m³

radius of plunger, r₁ = 0.135 m

radius of piston, r₂ = 5.43 x 10⁻³ m

Part (a) The input force needed to support 22600-N weight, when the bottom surfaces of the piston and plunger are at the same level;

P =\frac{F}{A}

Where;

P is pressure

F is force

A is circular area = πr²

\frac{F_1}{A_1} =\frac{F_2}{A_2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{F_1*A_2}{A_1} =\frac{F_1* \pi r_2^2}{\pi r_1^2} = \frac{F_1*  r_2^2}{ r_1^2} \\\\F_2 = \frac{22600*(5.43*10^{-3})^2 }{(0.135)^2}\\\\F_2 = 36.56 \ N

Part (b) The input force needed to support 22600-N weight, when the  bottom surface of the output plunger is 1.20 m above that of the input plunger

P_2 = P_1 + \rho gh

But, F = PA  and  A = πr²

F_2 = F_1(\frac{A_2}{A_1} ) + \rho gh*A_2\\\\F_2 = F_1(\frac{r_2^2}{r_1^2} )+\rho gh(\pi r_2^2)\\\\F_2 = 22600(\frac{5.43*10^{-3}}{0.135})^2 \ + 853*9.8*1.2*\pi (5.43*10^{-3})^2\\\\F_2=36.56 + 0.93\\\\F_2 = 37.49 \ N

Vlad1618 [11]
Some of the scientific questions that may be answered through the experiment are:

(1) What are the physical changes that may occur in the solution or the indicator when added with acidic/basic solution?

(2) How much of the indicator is needed in order to bring about a significant physical change in the solution to identify its H+ concentration?

Photons of infrared radiation with wavelengths longer than those of visible light will have what kind of energy compared to that
densk [106]

Answer:

Infrared photons carry lower radiation energy than the visible light.

Explanation:

  • Each photon carries an energy that is directly proportional to its frequency, being this proportionality constant the Planck's constant h.
  • So, we can write the energy of a single photon as follows:

       E = h*\nu (1)

  • Since there exists an inverse relationship between wavelength and frequency, and infrared radiation has longer wavelengths, this means that its frequency is lower than the one of the visible light.
  • So, an infrared photon carries less energy that one of the visible light.

8) A plastic rod, initially uncharged, is rubbed with wool and obtains a charge of 10 C. What is the charge on the wool after ru
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The charge on the wool after rubbing is - 10 C

Explanation:

Every uncharged body is electrically neutral, if the plastic rod acquires 10 Coulombs of charge after been rubbed with wool, then the wool will be left with an equal but opposite charge. This shows that the initial charge on the wool is 10 protons and 10 electrons and when the plastic acquires 10 C (10 protons), the wool will be left with excess 10 electrons.

Therefore, the charge on the wool after rubbing is - 10 C (negative 10 Coulombs).
