Answer:

Explanation:

Work, U, is equal to the force times the distance:

U = F · r

Force needed to lift the weight, is equal to the weight: F = W = m · g

so:

U = m · g · r

= 20.4kg · 9.81 $\frac{N}{kg}$ · 1.50m

= 35.316 $\frac{N}{m}$

= 35.316 W

WHAT IS A TOROID IN HYDRAULUCS?

xenn [34]

Answer:

A hydraulic actuator comprised of a toroidal piston within a toroidal enclosure, with differential fluid pressure alternatively applied to upper and lower surfaces of the piston to cause a reciprocating motion, and with plural double ended piston rods extending in parallel above and below the piston, and slidably extending in fluid sealed relation through end caps of the toroidal enclosure to distribute the vibrational force produced by the reciprocating piston over plural points of a surface area of the mass to be vibrated, thereby reducing the likelihood of stress, strain, or harmonics in the mass.

The solid cylinders AB and BC are bonded together at B and are attached to fixed supports at A and C. The modulus of rigidity is

romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 0.697*10³ lb.in

b) 6.352 ksi

Explanation:

For cylinder AB:

Let Length of AB = 12 in

$c=\frac{1}{2}d=\frac{1}{2} *1.1=0.55in\\ J=\frac{\pi c^4}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}0.55^4=0.1437\ in^4\\$

$\phi_B=\frac{T_{AB}L}{GJ}=\frac{T_{AB}*12}{3.3*10^6*0.1437} =2.53*10^{-5}T_{AB}$

For cylinder BC:

Let Length of BC = 18 in

$c=\frac{1}{2}d=\frac{1}{2} *2.2=1.1in\\ J=\frac{\pi c^4}{2}=\frac{\pi}{2}1.1^4=2.2998\ in^4\\$

$\phi_B=\frac{T_{BC}L}{GJ}=\frac{T_{BC}*18}{5.9*10^6*2.2998} =1.3266*10^{-6}T_{BC}$

$2.53*10^{-5}T_{AB}=1.3266*10^{-6}T_{BC}\\T_{BC}=19.0717T_{AB}$

$T_{AB}+T_{BC}-T=0\\T_{AB}+T_{BC}=T\\T_{AB}+T_{BC}=14*10^3\ lb.in\\but\ T_{BC}=19.0717T_{AB}\\T_{AB}+19.0717T_{AB}=14*10^3\\20.0717T_{AB}=14*10^3\\T_{AB}=0.697*10^3\ lb.in\\T_{BC}=13.302*10^3\ lb.in$
